not eroded (that I know of)

I think this is a great idea. But what about another survey that shows ALL problems - not just erosion.

Actually I can easily add that to this one.

I'll need to compile the data into classifications before I can produce easy numbers. I think our prime focus here though is on the 'hot topic'.

Feel free to report any other complications, and I'll add it to my data as anecdotal info. If I can then draw good data from that, I'll do it :puke:

Dawg, you are a dedicated Dawg!!

You can see my stats in my sig, and I've had no significant problems. As for eroded or not? Not so far as I know.

Do you want me to delete the posts once you've compiled them in? Just PM me when they're ready to come off. Otherwise this thread will get HUGE in short order.

I think this could ease the mind of all and frankly, its for my personal curiosity too.

The deletion thing may well prove a good idea. I'll drop you a line.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
