Anyone Getting Sleeved In Bakersfield,ca

[outrigger42 58]

Wow guys I am really nervous now. Garcia did a friends of mines surgery Nov 28. I stopped by to ask him how it went. He had a leak and has 4 drainage tubes and a feeding tube. They are going to convert him to a RNY but haven't done it before. I suggested he go to South Bay or San Diego where they have done a zillion.

The only thing that calms my fears is that he has been totally non compliant since day 1. And I've talked to many here who are problem free

What do you mean non-compliant? Did he not follow post op rules?

[outrigger42 58]

No he didn't. Ate too much, began smiling again, progressed diet too fast etc.

[outrigger42 58]

Lol smoking not smiling. Silly auto correct

[caglefan69 37]

Wow. Thats too bad. did he have all the insurance requirements? Hard to believe if he did have to jump through all the hoops he would mess stuff up.

Wow so exciting !!! Congrats my appt is the 12 I hope he doesn't push me out til march.

How did your appointment go? Are you scheduled for surgery yet? I have all my lab work this Friday morning, pre-admission Wednesday afternoon and surgery from there. Seems like its getting here super fast. Kinda scary now.

I went to a class at bariatric solutions on Tuesday and the nurse was talking about a guy who had a leak. She said he went through a drive thru and ordered and ate an entire Big Mac. Is this the same person?

Hey kndi86, just wondering how you're doing?

I'm doing ok....it's been a huge adjustment but in time it will be good. I'm on soft foods now and sometimes it's difficult but I need my nutrition. Another thing I find difficult is getting all my fluids. Trying to balance the drinking and eating has been trying but I will get it one of these days. Came back to work this week so very glad it's the weekend! Thanks for asking! How are you?

[caglefan69 37]

Well Im on my pre-op diet. Surgery with Irani is scheduled for the 27th. I was worried about you cuz the last i read you were going in then nothing! Yikes! Im so glad you're home and getting back on track. Do you regret it? How much have you lost? Im 5'6" sw 270.5 today 256.6.
