I went to have my bypass and they found a mass in my transverse colon. I have traveled hundreds of miles and now have to get this taken care of then come back to have bypass. Has anyone had an issue like this? I am scared and they gave me little to no information on what to do. Any information welcomed. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for your response. I am very scared I go to the doctor this Friday as a blizzard closed the road on Thursday. I am just trying to be positive. Keri

I also am a cardiac nurse. I understand but it's so different when you are the patient. I am a Christian so have turned this over to God. Of course I still worry but there is nothing I can do. I get home to MT on Saturday and will take it one day at a time. Will be calling my primary care Monday to see where we go from here. Thanks and God Bless. I included the images they gave me.

Thanks so much I needed some support. I go home Friday and will have to make the plans. I am so scared. Thanks so much! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Please anyone please share. I if it could be cancer would rather know than not. How do the remove it ?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

No cat scan or colonoscopy were done. I now have to travel home and get a hold of my primary care doc and see where I go from here. The documents say they fixed the hiatal hernia and were getting prepared to connect the bypass and a large mass was found in transverse colon. So they then sent me to recovery.

I just quit threw them in the garbage. With all soda and candy. I stopped those then did caffeine, snack food, and sugars. I started the preop diet yesterday so I hope stopping some of the things first this would be easier.

Great job Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I got it and am just about finished, Great information. However my surgery is not until 2/14/17 today I am having an anxiety attack or something. I am emotional, scared, and close to tears. I have no logical reason. I have been an RN since 1986 and I am a mess. Help

Louisa, My surgery is 2/14/17. I am more than prepared. However to day I am freaking out. I am scared, emotional and on the verge of tears. I have to travel to have surgery which is not a problem we have a home in NV anyway. I am looking forward to getting out of Montana for a short while it has been below zero pretty much since before Christmas. I have been an RN since 1986 and have gone over everything I would tell a patient that would be expecting surgery and nothing seems to work. I havent officially started the preop diet but have pretty much cut most of the no no's out already. I was feeling pretty good then this morning I wake up with major anxiety. I am headed to town tomorrow to go to the pain clinic and the dentist on Friday. I was to see both of my daughters and now one may be to busy to see me. I feel I need to see them in case something goes wrong. I cant figure out why I am freaking out. I am not an overly emotional / hormonal type. Keri

I have not had surgery yet I am scheduled for Feb 14th. I feel very emotional to day and I do not know why, I have researched this I am fully prepared. I have been an RN since 1986 but I am so nervous today I do not know what to do. I want to cry I feel sick to my stomach. I am freaking out.

I went through BeLiteWeight and they did everything for me. I went to my Primary Care and got a signature. Got blood work, ekg, everything needed they set up with the surgeon got my insurance information and then I got a surgery date. It all happened very quickly for me.

Those are not signs and symptoms of cholelithasis or gallstones. Female Fat Forty clay colored stools, epigastric pain not abdominal pain are the symptoms of gallstones. I am an RN. Is the abdominal pain low and to the right or middle of your abdomen. The gas are you passing gas? When was your last BM. Are you on a probiotic? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My nutritionist and surgeon says yes to Vitamin Patches. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
