I have my Surgery Date!



Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone!

I've been coming here and reading post since February and am thankful for this site and all the people that post their experiences on her. I have learned so much and am ready to take the journey. I have been given a surgery date....JUNE 6th :rolleyes:! I will be banded by Dr. Garth Davis at University General Hospital in Houston, Texas. I was told that I will have to be on a liquid diet 1 wk prior to surgery, which I'm thankful that it wasn't 2 wks.

I'm excited and nervous! I'm looking forward to talking and hearing from other June Bansters!

I just want to say Thank You for all the support everyone offers to others... this site is truly a blessing!

WooHoo! :tt1:

I just wanted to say that I also am having my surgery done by Dr. Garth Davis at University General. I am just waiting on the coordinator to call me with the surgery date. I am a self-pay. Good luck to you.

Congratulations on you date!:lol: I am hoping to be a June bandster myself, but the school I work at isn't out until the 6th and my only child's 18th birthday is the 10th, so I will probably put it off until after that. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
