Surgery tomorrow! ANXIOUS



Recommended Posts

My flight leaves this morning at 5:30. I'm having surgery with dr. Fernando Garcia. :)

I've been up all night doing last minute things. I'm so anxious and nervous... Tried to lye down for a few but my eyes are wide open. I'm excited but very anxious. Wish me luck!!

I'll do my best to post my experience and keep those of you soon to be sleevers updated!

Thanks so much for all the kind wishes. I'm in the hotel room, surgery is tomorrow morning. So I'm hoping to be a sleeved girl by noon. I'm excited for my life to change! BTW the hotel is great so far! Very courteous and helpful staff, Rosie the coordinator was great, and Samuel the driver was super nice and welcoming. :)

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      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.

        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!
