Surgery tomorrow but I feel alittle sick.



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone. I'm new here and so excited to be here. My surgery is tomorrow March 14th, we are leaving to stay the night in town at a hotel tonight. I've been super nervous and all those last minute jitters. My main question is I woke up today alittle chest congested, they say don't come if your sick. I've been waiting sooooo long for this, so do I go and let the dr decide? or do I call and ask if I should reschedule in the morning? Which I DONT WANT TO DO. Please I need advice.

Hummmmm. I think I would want the doctor to decide but I wonder if you will get that far. If I remember correctly they asked at the checking desk if I had any of the COVID symptoms (they listed them all out). Hopefully it’s nothing and you still get to go through with it but better safe than sorry so definitely tell The doctor.

Are you feeling any better with your congestion? I don’t have an answer, but I would probably not cancel unless you get worse. They can always listen to your chest if necessary.

That's what I thought too. Weather has been finicky here in north Dakota and warmer today so I wonder if that did it. I do feel slightly better. Thank you for your imput.

Thank you. They didn't cancel. Anesthesia listened to my lungs and I'm on the other side of surgery about 10hrs out in recovery.

Yay. I was thinking about you today. So glad they didn’t make you cancel.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
