Thanks for your support. Everyone please pray for me. My surgery date is 9/6 and I just found out today that my EKG was abnormal. I've had stress tests in the past and no problems ever. I am praying this won't delay my surgery. I've been on the pre-op diet now 9 days and am ready to be on the other side.

Good luck. I can't wait to hear your success story. My surgery is 9/6 and I am so ready. I'm sure I won't sleep a wink the night before.

Thank you, I don't even know what to do with myself right now. I hope all the other September sleevers are getting ready!

Wishing you all the best! I'm guessing your not sleeping well at this point, I don't think I will be able to sleep at all next week. I hope you have a healthy and speedy recovery.

I also received a call yesterday telling me my EKG was abnormal just five days before my scheduled 9/6 self-pay surgery in Dallas. I've never had an abnormal EKG so I was floored and made arrangements to have it re-done immediately...this time at a cardiologist's office. So glad I did because I just received a call a few minutes ago from the cardiologist and my EKG is fine. Appears the first reading was incorrect so I'm glad I had the test re-done. These tests are so often misinterpreted if not read by a specialist and jumping straight in to a battery of cardiac tests didn't seem plausible to me. I was able to get right in to my Mother's cardiologist so I didn't burn valuable time had I needed to go ahead with the full range of tests which they could also have done. Simply retaking the EKG was certainly the way to go. My surgery is scheduled for next Tuesday and I was not looking forward to postponing. Wheww.

PS...I'm not a doctor but I recommend re-taking the 5 minute EKG anytime there is a question arising from only one prior test.

My first test was done at Forest Park Surgical Center....was yours done there, as well?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
