So i am 2months out from surgery and still really sick. I have been having issues keeping food and drink down well basically simce i had the surgery. Ive had two endoscopys and have a third on the 15th. I feel like i have the flu 24/7 like it seriously never goes away. And i dry heav all day and every once in awhile something will come up. I just dont know how much longer i can take this :( this last endoscopy didnt help at all so i think it has to be something else. I moved after my first one and i dont feel like all these new docs are taking this seriously. Im at a loss for what to do or what it could be. Im just sooo sick. Has anyone else gone thru this??

Oh Tonya, I am so sorry to hear this. I know how awful you must feel. I know there are others on the board that are struggling or have had similar issues and maybe able to help you. All I can offer is a hug right now and hope you get this fixed. Are there other doctors you maybe able to try?

Have you had any upper gi series done? That would show how everything is moving through...

Praying for you. Wondering if the stress factor is playing a part in this and aggravating what is going on with you physically? Just a thought sounds like you have your plate full with the little ones.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
