Recommended Posts

Well right when I thought I was almost done with this process. I get a call from Dr. Ismeal (Kaiser) saying that there was a shadow growth on my kidney. I now have to have a CT Scan done to make sure that it is not Cancer, am so ughhh right now. More so irritated, after all this that I have been through with just make the decision to go forth with WLS and then to have gone through the entire Options process and all tests and labs to find out there is the damn thing on my Kidney...Sheesh can a fat girl something to just go right :angry: , without having to jump through hoops???

I am little scarred, but I know I trust God so that's all I can do is trust at this point.

Maybe the WLS will save your life in one way or another. Be grateful.

I had a benign growth on my thyroid and other what's called "lipomas" on different parts---- including a kidney one. Many, many people have them in all parts of the body. It's called a fatty tumor, is almost always totally benign and very common.

Get the testing of course, but like I said sooooo common from the TONS of research I did.

Thanks smb, I agree...I am grateful whatever it is was caught, rather than me never knowing there could possible be an issue.

Mzluvee.... I am truly hoping for the best for you. Hopefully the shadow is not much and you can move forward as soon as possible. I certainly feel your pain as there are so many hoops to jump through. Definitely keeping you in my prayers!

SML1997...thank you so much I appreciate the prayers. I am keeping my head up and trusting in God, I just was a bit discouraged and thought "Great a possible Sleeve set back" . I can just see what happens with the CT scan.

I had to do extra tests becaues my EKG and heart rate were abnormal so I totally know how frustrated you feel. I was really pissed off and after that wore off scared that there was something wrong with my heart. All turned out well after all so I hope the same happens for you and it's nothing in the end.

I had a scare too. I had my endoscopy done before surgery and they found a " tumor" on my stomach. Well turns out its a cyst. They thought I had stomach cancer! Ughhhh. But it was tested and everything came back benign. So now it just needs to be monitored. Praying for you that it's nothing serious.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
