I had a nightmare!



Recommended Posts

So I was approved for surgery and scheduled 10/2 and I had the most horrible nightmare. I deamt that they called me to cancel my surgery. In my dream I cried so hard and was so devistated. Im still so nervous since it is 12 days away. I am maintaining under my weight but it still seems so hard. 12 days seems so quick yet so far away. On top of all of that I have to host my son's 4th birthday party 5 days before surgery. I dont really care for cake but we will be BBQing. Gotta stay on the strait and narrow.

Anyone have these type of bad dreams before surgery?

Yes, I had one of those, too. Funny thing is, about the time it hit 2 weeks pre-op for me, the time just flew by! So just sit back and chill; put you legs up. Enjoy your son's birthday. The surgery will be here in the blink of an eye!

Good luck

Beni,

How is it going? Only 5 more days! Are you getting as excited as I am?

I'll be glad once I have all of my errands run, house cleaned, and get caught up at work. I guess keeping busy is the best thing to do.

Where are you located?

Hi, I no longer have the lap band but I still have the comorbid conditions I had before. Dr. is saying I need RNY and have found no reason why I can't go through with it in the next three months. I'm so afraid but I know that I need to do this for health reasons. Last night I dreamt that I was at a weight loss class and the Dr. came up to me and said "OK, I'll see you in surgery in 2 weeks". I had prayed earlier to make the right decision during this process, and I feel that it came to me in that dream. I will be calling my Dr.'s office to find out about scheduling very soon.

Hey NC Girl, sorry for the slow response. I'm doing okay. That was the only nightmare I had, I've had no others since then. I'm getting excited! I started a self induced liquid diet today, wasn't too bad, did get really hungry at 7 pm though. I have my pre op physical tomorrow with the last blood work, then it's on to surgery. Thursday can't get here soon enough for me now!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
