Leaving On A Jet Plane.....



Recommended Posts

Getting ready to to to the airport! I can't believe I'm on my way! Just 2 days to my surgery....I'm nervous and super excited!

Hubby's going to cry when he drops me at the airport (I just know it!). He's so sweet!

I'll check in again from San Diego.< /p>

Wish me luck!

Good luck I'll be right behind you. And tell your hubby to suck it up and be a man. Lol : )

So he didn't cry....but he has sent me 6 text messages in the last hour! LOL

There's nothing wrong with a man who cries....I'd rather have a man who shows and shares his feelings than a stoic who never shows his humanity!

I'm in the Maple Leaf Lounge (first time!). It's pretty nice, but I'm missing the chance to eat all the yummy food (for free!). They even have free alcohol (at 9 am!).

Ah well, maybe next time.......(only little bites though...LOL).

More updates coming later.

Yay for you! It will be great - sending prayers your way for an easy surgery and fast recovery! :) And sounds like you have a sweet hubby.

Surgery day is finally here!

Waiting to get picked up at my hotel and taken across the border. Apparently there was a long delay and the driver (Dr. Kelly's wife Cece!) has to drop off NJSharon at the airport first.

Too bad, I thought I might get to meet her before she went back home! Apparently she had a perfect surgery and a flawless recovery. No gas, no pain. In fact, she's leaving me her Gas-X Strips. I looked in 6 different pharmacies here in San Diego, and no one had the strips, just tabs and gel pills. Thanks NJSharon! Hopefully I won't need then, just, like you, but knowing I have them is a huge relief.

I'll check-in again after surgery. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
