Impatiently waiting...June sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Did all my pre-op testing this morning. Ultrasound, chest x-ray, ekg, and bloodwork. The ultrasound was so annoying, I had to keep taking huge breaths and holding it the entire time. Plus, ultrasounds just aren't much fun when there isn't a baby involved!

All I have left is my final weigh-in and the endoscopy! I'm so antsy!

Also, I'm down 22 lbs since starting my program. :)

I'm scheduled for June 1. Now that the date is close, I'm kinda terrified! Anyone else riding that roller coaster?

I am! My date is June 1st as well. I have my last meeting with my surgeon today and I have about a page long list of questions. I am probably over thinking this, but it is all I can focus on at the moment. I am so ready for this to happen!!!

Ok so I had my final visit with my surgeon today. He verified that I am all set for my June 1st date. They reviewed by blood work, nicotine test, and other tests and I am all set. I was so worried that something would change my date, Thankfully that didn't happen. Now I just have to wait 10 days!!!!

Very Excited! Just got my date, it's going to be June 3rd! Now it's just getting through the next 11 days. They scheduled my pre-op classes and physical for the Day before my surgery and my labs for 05/27/15. I just hope nothing weird happens to derail it. I'm ready to get this party started! :D

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
