:toetap05::confused::frown::eek: OK I am ready I will be leaving for the surgery center in 1 hour. I am nevous and cant wait untill this all behind me. I welcome the day that I will sit here nervously awaiting my 1st fill. I THANK EVERYONR FOR THEIR SUPPORT I JUST LOVE THIS SITE. SO MANY GOOD PEOPLE. Oh here I go getting all emotional lol let me go. I hope to past a blog later this evening
I only have three days well Thur. at this time I will be on my way into surgery. I spend my Sunday morning in the ER. I was convinced I had kidney failure LOL. Only after hours of testing and two different Doctors was I convinced that I was ok. I have been so stressed out that I made myself sick. I just didnt want anything to stop my having surgery this week. So every pain I pay close attention too. I am just worried about the band getting infected / erroded. I just dont want to be one of those people that for one reason or another the band fails me. I am willing and prepared to do all that is in my power to assure success. I just fear those issues that I have no control of. Yes,believe it or not I did pass my phys. evaul. LOL.
Well Iam 14 days away from my new lease on life i am so excited. I cant lie i am just as worried. I find myself being obsessed with this site i am so greatful for all the information I have learned (some of the info i could have done without:sleep: ) I am not computer savy but i have a feeling after the next couple of months i will become a wiz at least at this site, I have been waiting for the band awhile and now i just cant believe it. One of my biggest concerns is the loose skin thing OMG that is one issue i cant bare to think about i heard so many horror stories. i am going to work out like crazy and pray i am one of the lucky ones. Ok i will keep in touch
:thumbup::thumbup:I am 8 days away from my band and I cant think of anything else. Weather its good thoughts or my just worrying. I am so greatful for this site. I feel as if i know so much more now and I am so much more prepared. I have a whole list of questions for my Dr. and tommorrow is my pre op oppt. When i first dealt with my Dr. he asked if i had any questions and i said NO i just didnt know what questions to ask. I just hope I can come back to work soon I plan to just take under a week off the only problem is i live an hour away and i hear so many people say they are so tired by the end of the day and i just dread the thought of my being tired and fighting traffic but if that is my biggest issue then i guess i will be lucky. i just cant wait untill i am the one loving my band hell i love it already.:tt1:
:thumbup: I cant believe i am really comming down with a cold sinus infection dam dam dam i knew this would happen i am sed. for the 29th and if i dont beat this before then i will have to re sed. i just dont want that. i will call my Dr, as soon as they open. I really dont want to tell them i just hope and prat i can kick this before tue. I am so pump right now i planned to do all my shopping preparations and now I just have to put that off and go straight home and medicate my self.:eek::confused::thumbup:
Weii i am going through so much everything and everyone seems to piss me off. i should be happy celebrating i am weeks from my surgery date 1-28-09. i have not smoked in two weeks(on the patch) and i know that might have alot to do with my being sooo touchie. I think i am going to push my date back at least a week. i may need some med. because i am too emotional i either want to bite your head off or cry a river no in between. i have read almost every blog. and i havent found anyone with these type of issues. just a couple of dys ago i was so happy so excited. :thumbdown:
Hello, well i had my pre op appt. yesterday and I am sooo happy I am ready to go. No doubt here. I asked all my questions and my Dr. is pretty cool (not to mention FINE :thumbup:) he answered every question in detail. I feel so comfortable. I am still worried that something will go wrong not so much during surgery but I am worried I wont get banded thats my biggest fear. I read a blog. and she woke up and her 1st question was did I get my band I feel her, best believe that will be my first question as well. My sinus are bothering me and I just cant let that be an issue I have to get that together I cant get a sinus cold, infection now I want to get this over with. I am ready. I dont have to go on that liquid diet b 4 surgery but I do have to take a serious laxitive the day b4:crying:. I will keep my food intake lite though.
Well here it is January 13,2009 and I have in total 15 days until I am banded. This has been a long journey and I am so excited about what is happening right now. I am on my way to a healthier and more livlier self. It has been a long road to get where i am at right now and the emotions I have gone through and am going through is at times so overwhelming. if there are any words of wisdom or thoughts out there please to all who are going through what I am or who have already gone through please feel free to share.
