    Trip post op.. Yes or no?

    Thank you all for your input! I guess I will be sitting out this trip.
  2. Hi! My surgery is scheduled for June 18th...sleeve with hiatal hernia repair. I am a leader for a youth trip leaving June 23rd for 4 days. It's the beach...only a four hour drive. I'm not required to do anything with the group except make sure they are in the room at night. I need opinions from those who have had surgery. Will I feel like recovering in a hotel room on the beach, 5 days after surgery? Or do I bow out? If recovering at home, I will have my 4 kids (ages 4-14) to take care of while my husband works. Thanks for any input!!
  3. You have no idea how much you've helped me tonight! I am 32 and have been having major reservations about this surgery. I know the pros outweigh the cons and I'm doing this for my health! So thank you so very much!!! My surgery is scheduled for June 18th...sleeve with hiatal hernia repair. I am a leader for a youth trip leaving June 23rd for 4 days. It's the beach...only a four hour drive. I'm not required to do anything with the group except make sure they are in the room at night. I don't have to be in the sun on beach nor go out to eat with them. I need opinions from those who have had surgery. Will I feel like recovering in a hotel room on the beach, 5 days after surgery? Or do I bow out? If recovering at home, I will have my 4 kids (ages 4-14) to take care of while my husband works. Thanks for any input!!

    Sleeve vs bypass

    Hi! I will be having the sleeve in June and have a large hiatal hernia. The surgeon and his team don't seem concerned. It's a 2 for 1 deal. I'm paying for the vsg and they will fix my hernia while in there for free!
