October 2009 Surgery Date?



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on October 1st and everything is going great so far. Only thing is I had no idea how often I drop things on the floor and have to pick it up - just so painful.

LOL!

I know. As long as you bend and squat with your legs & knees there is no strain.

I'm feeling great too.

5 days post op with a repaired hernia!

:wink2:

Hi all I am FINALLY home!!!! I got banded on friday Oct 2nd. I had some problems ............. first was the anesthea( i wont scare anyone) second when i had the swallow test on sat no liquid passed thru. So I got my first adjustmant one day after surgery...wow!!! the doc pulled one half ml out of my band. The barium passed thru slowly afterwards. He ;et me go home at 3oopm on sat. I drank about 2 oz of Water on sunday and had feeling like it was just sitting there. Brought it back up. I was vomitting all day and night.I tried toughinh it out sippingly slowly etc take my time.I called doc on Monday and off to ER on Monday afternoon, I was admitted for dehydration. I was throwing up my own saliva. I had abnormal amount of swelling and it closed the band . After three days of swallow tests and constant IV's . the liquid passed thru the band. I came home on Weds night. Doc said by weekend all the swellen should be gone.

As of Thurs morning I am able to hold down water-liquids.just sipping real slowly and taking time inbetween. I cant wait to start the "real" diet and get some mush and puree in me.... I gues the good thing out of all this is Since last Thursday I lost 12 pounds.....lol.........even after all the BS Iam still glad I got banded and keep staring at that Leather NY Jet coat I bought three years ago and dreaming about it fitting again.

The 5o% is also what my coverage will pay but all that means is the 50% or your out of pocket which mine is 3000.00 so this is less than the percentage if I were you go by what your ins says not the hospital.

October 22! I'm soooooo nervous! all the complications, problems. But on the other hand, I'm soooo ready. my Dr. hasn't told me of the pre op diet, but I was going to start one next week anyway. Does everybody have to have the endoscopy?

      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.
