Kelticcow reacted to MG1776 in It's getting real...
I just received the phone call that I am meeting with the nurse tomorrow to discuss surgery dates. All tests and classes completed and the 1st part of my mission will be completed. I'm ready to go.

Kelticcow reacted to The in Bypass Eve
Thank you so much all for your thoughts and prayers. So, here's the score...
I feel amazing, I came back to my room 3 or 4 hours ago and I feel fantastic. Oxygen's gently wafting up my nose and my legs are alternately popping and inflating in an oddly relaxing rhythm.
I don't feel any pain worth mentioning, at the most I think you could say I'm 'aware' of where the incisions were made. I'm sat upright and about to take my first walk - I really can't wait to get on my feet.
Given everything I've read I'm surprised how easy constant little sips of Water are - I've probably (I can't see the record from here) got through 400ml so far).
Best of all given the almost imperceptibly rising level of anxiety that's accompanied me these last weeks I just feel a tremendous sense of relaxation and wellbeing - I feel like ordering a club sandwich and a massage from room service... ooooops!

Looking forward to hearing how your surgery went. The good news is you will never be the same, in a very positive way. Will pray for quick recovery and healing

Kelticcow reacted to larta in Band Removal and Sleeve in one surgery ... what should I expect?
I have a hard area where my port was. It doesn't hurt but sticks out a little. I hope it will go away. I go back to the surgeon on the 26th. Still on Protein Drinks etc; Also, am not eating, but feel a lot different then I did with the band. I feel like I could eat. YIKES.....I did have a couple bites of a soft egg, and several bits of refried Beans. I was satisfied soon, but could have eatten more. My dr would have had me on pureed food but he has been out of town. I keep reading about people have tests to see if they have a leak. My Dr didn't do any special test to check that out. I hope I don't have one, or get one. That is the one complication that pretty much ruins everything.
