I'm scheduled to be banded a week from tomorrow BUT I woke up with the worst cough/cold I've ever had in my life. I've had this bronchitis for almost three months now so the surgeon had already scheduled me for a chest x-ray on Tuesday. I'm so frustrated and upset that this might put off my surgery for another month!

Please pray that I'll miraculously get better for the chest x-ray. AND if that doesn't work...pray that I won't have a meltdown when the surgery is postponed. =(

Thank you!

I hope your cough lets up. I would definitely not want to be coughing those first 2 days after surgery. I was afraid to LAUGH! lol

Potentially positive news...

I just talked to my surgeon's nurse and told her how sick I am and asked if it was worth my time to go for the chest x-ray tomorrow. She said that he rarely, RARELY cancels a surgery unless the patient has a high fever. That's encouraging news. I'll keep you posted! Keep praying!

Glad you are feeling better. Keep up with the liquids, that makes a diffence. I have Asthma and suffer from chronic coughs a lot. 64 ounces of Water a day makes a big difference. Good luck! You are almost there.:wub::pray2:

Gibson,

I'm pulling for you. I went through almost the same thing. I was diagnosed with pneumonia 3 weeks before my surgery. However, really strong antibiotics and a few other drugs helped me through it. I have to get one more chest x-ray this week before my surgery next Monday. I'm sure everything will be just fine.

Take extra care of yourself and you will shake this bronchitis!

Thank you guys! I love this place. =) One new thing that may be in my favor is that tomorrow is going to be snowy and bad so I might not be able to make the trip. If I have to go later in the week I'll have more time to get better! =)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
