Don't let them forget your scripts!
brebbugbrielle4 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I had surgery Monday and was released Wed night around 6-7. They were suppose to give me scripts for pain plus my blood thinner shots they called those in but just in case the pharmacy didn't have them I could go somewhere else. Guess what no scripts and after arguing and going back and fourth because they want me to say I lost them or something the hospital says they still have them and never gave them to me. Really!!!! I already told you that. So they can't call me in any pain meds and I live about an hour away from the surgeons office. Thank God for my body pillow. Sorry for the rant it's the pain taking over ???? -

The head nurse at the hospital actually called me to say she lives a few minutes away from me and would drop them off and expressed how sorry she was that this had happened vs everyone else who acted like they wanted me to admit I lost or misplaced them. @@samuelsmom Thank you and I will try the Tylenol. @@AhnaLucille Thank you so much I hope to get some real soon. -

@@proudgrammy he said the hernia was smaller then he thought it was and he will be keeping eye out for changes. Nope you should have taken it then u think he's just looking for more money down the road. Oh well all and all I'm so glad to be starting my new life. Good luck to you all. It will be over before you know it. -

Thank you for the well wishes all. Dr. Was suppose to repair a hernia an remove gallbladder he did neither and I've see everyone in the past to days with the exception on him. The pain is not as bad as I expected to be (we all tolerated it differently) I've gained 15 PDS after loosing almost twenty. All and all I feel pretty groggy so if sounds crazy I apologize. Good Luck all!!!! -

I had mine on the 20th and if my surgery go as smooth as my EGD did I would be ecstatic. No sore throat or anything. Sorry you had a bad experience and hope your feeling better. -
Not feeling rushed.....I feel "Ready"!
brebbugbrielle4 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
So my surgery date for my sleeve was 2/4 after originally thinking it wouldn't be till the end of Feb. but I got a call saying I need to be moved to 2/2. Naturally I called to share the news with my BestFriend and she asked how do you feel about that? ???? Ummmm "Great" You dont feel rushed? No!!!!! (I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself ????) It's not like they called me yesterday and said come in today. It's only a two day difference. We started trying to do this journey together and stopped. I restarted and she didn't and now I feel like she is trying to act like she is supportive but really is a little jealous and I hope that isn't the case but when somebody says....Your gonna be anorexic! It's hard to believe they are happy for you. Anyway sorry for the rant just needed to get it off my chest. Well I'll be on my way to crossing these thunder thighs in six days ????. Good luck all on your upcoming Feb surgeries!!!! -

brebbugbrielle4 replied to brebbugbrielle4's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
@ We both just stopped pursuing the first time because although we didn't want to use the same Dr. we just couldn't connect with the Drs. that we picked. But when I went back to work in Sept. my co worker had the sleeve done over the summer and she looked "Great" so I started again and the same Dr. that did her and gave the Governer of our State the lap band is gonna do me. She actually texted me this morning to say you have six more days. I'm nervous for you!!!! Are you nervous? I responded.....No I am not!!!! Of course I'm nervous I mean be for real it's surgery but I am not.....no I "Refuse" to let her make me even more nervous then I already am. -

@ Luckily for me my Mom and my other half are gonna be my support. It took some convincing for my Mom but once she got all the info she has been great. I think it's mainly the fact that if we told people to pick which one of us was gonna get WLS they would pick her because I'm 5' 0" and weighed at highest 220 and she is about 5' 9" and weighs around 450-500. I tried to get her back on the bandwagon with me but people have to make their own choices. Oh well come on Monday ????. Can't wait to join you on the losers bench!!! -

Fell off the wagon.......
brebbugbrielle4 replied to Diane Grimm's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Awwww don't beat yourself up too bad. I start my prr-op diet tomorrow and I'm praying to make the 13 days I'm on it. Jump back on the bandwagon and keep on trucking ???? Good Luck!!!!! -
Hello I am beginning my journey and met with the surgeon today. I have had a few serious medical conditions with the two most serious being CHF four times and Rhabdomyolysis twice which makes the surgeon very worried. I was wondering if there is anyone one else who has had Rhabdo and had the surgery or currently going thru the process and running into problems? Thanks in advance for any insight if you have experienced this as I am a little nervous.
