My revision from sleeve to bypass will happen on Wednesday

[LilMissDiva Irene 3,282]

And I am so ready for it. Sick of being sick and tired of being tired. Reflux keeping me up at night and coughing like a chain smoker all day, it gets in the way of my health, and soon it would get in the way of my life. It's not a risk I'll take at all so into the surgery room I go like a strong woman that I am. I'm hopeful my recovery will only be 3 weeks, I want to get back to work ASAP.

I'm looking forward to feeling like my old self again, energized and ready for the day!

Carpe Diem!

Reflux is SUCH a pain! I had my bypass June 9th and haven't had a TOUCH of reflux -- no meds, no Tums... I can even lay down after eating! It's a miracle! lol

Best wishes!

@@Alex Brecher thank you! I will update asap

@@Ginger Snaps that sounds like such a miracle right now. I was refluxing in my sleep really bad last night. It's just so awful and looking forward to not having to live like this anymore! Thank you for that vote of confidence.
