Rodney Tate 6 Posted February 15, 2015 Tomorrow is the big day. Of course I picked a surgery date that involves winter weather, which in the South is disastrous. But luckily it will not start until after I am in the hospital and thru with Surgery. Its been almost a year process to get here due to what my insurance required and some work issues that had to be handled before I felt ready and could concentrate me. My physicians office "plan" has over prepared me for almost everything. Its so comprehensive and I feel sorry for some bariatric patients that I come into contact with. I'l like "they didn't tell you about that". I work in health care and are notoriously bad patients, but the nerves have passed and I'm ready for the next chapter in my life, I plan on waking up from the surgery already on the path to the new me.

bitsybug 0 Posted February 15, 2015 Mine is tomorrow too! I'm all nerves. Never had a surgery before of any kind, not even wisdom teeth. I'd say I have butterflies, but i've been on liquids for two weeks so I can attest there's nothing in my tummy at all LOL. We will both be on our way to being healthy soon... life is good My mom had an RNY last monday, and she is doing fabulously. She's been walking and enjoying her time off since day 3. The only crying she's done is tears of joy! Best of luck to you! Keep us posted how it goes when you can Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
