Post Op Care/ Preop Eval



Recommended Posts

I can't say enough about my primary doctor. He is so special to me. When i started my research over 6 months ago I told him about going to mx. Hes from columbia and said he would go in a heart beat! He was so excited for me. He knows how bad my back is, blood pressure, fatigue, and that if I dont do this I'm looking at back surgeries! Not one but a few. This is me taking control of what I can. He did my preop eval today and even wrote a letter to Dr. Ponce in Spanish! I can't tell you how releived I was today that I have the support of my wonderful primary. He agreed to do all post op as his background is in surgery. Whew what good news! He hugged me and added me to his prayer list. Said he will see me again because the big man is in charge and he knows I'm in good hands! I will sleep well. Good night all

I can only hope that my primary is as supportive and receptive to the idea of me self paying for the surgery and going to mexico. Something tells me though that I won't be as blessed as you are in that department!!!

      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'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
