Sleeve may be on hold :-(



Recommended Posts

I had my preop appointment on Tuesday and it showed that I have LVH, left ventricular hyperthrophy. So I have to see a cardiologist now to clear me for surgery. That'll be on Monday 3/30, my surgery date is 4/6.

PLUS, they now said I have to go for an endoscopy, because I showed that I have reflux. Why did they wait until 10 days before the surgery to decide that I need to have the endoscopy. I had my Upper GI in January, why not do it then.

Hopefully Monday will be okay and I can have the surgery.

Better safe than sorry. Try not to borrow trouble. Even if your surgery is delayed, better a delay than post-op complications.

      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'. ???

        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.

      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!
