Good luck! I was also alone, but the time went very quickly. The nurses were in and out. I had to walk a lot so visiting wasn’t going to be an option anyways. It can be overwhelming learning your new lifestyle right out of surgery so you will be busy trying to take everything in. It’s definitely worth it!

my husband was with me when I had surgery in 2015, but I slept most of the time, so I would have been fine without him there.

Please give us a report of how things went. Also, get up and walk around the halls a bit. It will do you good.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
