Hi, I am new here I had VSG surgery in May 2010 and just took a digital home pregnancy this morning and it was positive!! I'm freaking out and I don't really believe it, has anyone ever had false positive results?? Could I really be preg???

Normally "false positives" are very early pregnancies that just didn't take, so they were not falsely positive, they just didn't take..

I've been trying to get pregnant for years, many $ and tears to not be so..

Congratulations! Go get another one to make sure (i never trusted just one). Your Dr. can order blood test right away. Yeah for you!!

Thanks, I called the doctor right away this morning and he just kind of said well, I'm sure it's true just keep taking your Vitamins and I'll see you on the 31st for your first appointment...I really wanted him to do a blood test. I have been trying to get pregnant for 6 years and I too have spent tons of money and tons of tears!!! So I am really anxious about this!! I think I will go buy another test and take it in the morning. I know me though and I won't be satisfied until I actually see and hear the heart beat. Trying not to get to excited but can't help it!! I just can't believe it said "pregnant"!! I'm almost afraid to take another one what if it says not pregnant!!

Congrats! I know you're eager for a blood test confirmation, but three tests won't lie! Take care of yourself and have a great doctor's visit on the 31st.

      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.
