Feeling overwhelmed today. Had my endo yesterday & had a hard time with the narcotics wearing off. Once the sedative finally wore off, I felt high as a kite & it's finally subsiding about 36 hours later. I missed an extra day of work that I wasn't planning on and have a Migraine, yet the worst part was hearing my results. I had no clue that I would have so much deterioration of my esophagus, let alone a large hiatal hernia. A couple of providers are lagging on getting medical records to my surgeon. I've made so many phone calls and get the same story, they supposedly faxed them multiple times, yet the surgeon's office insists they haven't gotten anything. I don't even know which place to trust. How hard is it to fax a few pages??? I suppose the next step is to request the records in-hand & drive them to their office myself, which would require taking another day off work. After all of this, I just feel NUMB.

Congrats and welcome to our May surgery list! I added you to our list. You have a surgery buddy on May 1. I told my hubby' date=' children and just a few close friends/family. Didn't tell my mom or sisters because they are jealous and negative of everything, nonsupportive and they would just be so judgmental. Don't need any of that. Plus, this is for ME! :-)

Surgery date: May 14, 2013[/quote']

Thanks. I told hubby kids and a few close friends. My sis is in medical business so she has a different perspective and is also worried about something happening to me. Heading to Boston now and am not nervous just kind if excited. This is my new birthday. Sign me. Skinny girl inside just waiting to dance!!

Welcome back! I can't believe we are actually in May already!! I love this group we have. It's great that we have so much support from one another. How long is your puree diet?

      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.
