Hello! I had my rny surgery last Wednesday, 9/7, in Seattle. I live in the Issaquah / Preston area and I'm still getting used to my new stomach pouch and pain management. :)

Hi! How did you feel after surgery? I live in Port Townsend. It's nice to meet another Washingtonian. ☺️

Nice to meet you! I felt surprisingly mild/good after surgery! I was in quite a bit of pain when I went home - especially that leftmost incision. 😱 I'm a week out from surgery tomorrow and I'm feeling a lot better. 😊 I think I made the right decision to have rny bariatric surgery! :D

Thank you and Congratulations to you! I’m so glad we have a quality Bariatric clinic here on the Peninsula. I attended one of the online group meetings and plan to attend more. I just scheduled my surgery date yesterday for October 10🙌🏼.

The clinic is amazing! Keri had everything so well organized, it made the whole process great and less stressful. October 10th! That's coming up. How exciting 😀

I lived in Indianola for 11 years and just moved to Silverdale this last year! I will be having surgery with Dr. Clive in October. I hope your journey is going well!

I might see you on the zoom on the 5th of October if you are joining. It's Reyes and Clives current and past patients. :)

Hi. I live over in Central WA, north of Wenatchee. I had my GB surgery 1/1923 and am in recovery phase. Not fun so far…. But am losing .5-1 lb per day pretty much. 😉

        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!!
