nikki_is_winning 13 Posted August 31, 2013 So after two weeks of liquid diet' date=' prepping and planning for support and care for myself and my kids, as well as prepping myself mentally for this surgery, I woke up from anesthesia with no sleeve. They found a tumor in the base of my stomach. I have to see a gastroenterologist and have a biopsy done. Once everything is ok and the tumor is removed I can proceed with the sleeve. I'm sad, disappointed. I cried so much in the hospital, the nurses were so nice to me. Good news is the surgeon said that from the look of it, it looks benign. Im calling the specialist tomorrow to see how soon they can get me in. Hoping for the best![/quote'] I am so sorry they were not able to do the sleeve for you but glad that they found the tumor. Looks like on time. I hope that you can be sleeved soon and your journey can begin! 2 beebs13 and BellaHugz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted August 31, 2013 I truly am sorry that you were not able to complete your surgery. I am sure this will all work out for you and everything happens for a reason. I know you don't want to hear someone say that right now but it is true. Hang in there and keep the faith!! I wish you the very best outcome with your stomach and your sleeve procedure!!

beebs13 48 Posted August 31, 2013 Thank you everyone for the support. It still feels so surreal. I can't believe it didn't happen, but I need to focus on the other aspect and hopefully be sleeved soon. Thanks again! 1 Beach Lover reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BayshoreBuddy 58 Posted September 10, 2013 It's benign!!! Calling the coordinator tomorrow to reschedule my surgery!! Fantastic!!! When you call the coordinator; Don't forget to ask for the two for one operation special pricing! They could do both operations with one anesthesia, one operating room, and heck the same five small laparoscopic incisions - just different specialist surgeon teams - one recuperative hospital stay, all obvious savings! Good Luck with your sleeve do-over! 1 beebs13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AngiD 95 Posted September 13, 2013 are they doing both at the same time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JanetBP 16 Posted September 13, 2013 This is the classic dark cloud - silver lining scenario! if you weren't going to get sleeved it could have been years before you had symptoms from your little unwanted guest. fingers crossed for a good outcome, quick recovery and a sleeve asap. janet 1 beebs13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
