Surgery didn't happen for me



Recommended Posts

I was scheduled for July 10th and my Dr was in and when he went to lift my liver he found two masses on it. He has sent off a biopsy and should get the results Tuesday or Wednesday, but I can't tell you how disappointing this all is. Same pain and procedure minus the sleeve. I'm certain the biopsy will turn out benign and we will schedule another date then.

I had a very large mass on my liver, too. My doctor removed it and did the surgery. You'll have your surgery and this will be nothing but a blip on the radar eventually.

Ugh! The soreness from the surgery is not bad. I'm depressed from the meds I think. Also the fact this happened for nothing this time around. I'm ready to get the results and get scheduled to make this happen!

How frustrating! I can only imagine how disappointing that will be. Sending thoughts your way that the biopsy comes back clear and that you are quickly put back on track for your surgery!

Thank you all for your kind words. I will say of this is the pain that I can expect after surgery I will be good to go! No pain medicine at all today. I have been able to move around the house and piddle in the kitchen. I don't think I will hardly be ready for work tomorrow, but maybe Tuesday or Wednesday. I will say I am eating a cheeseburger this afternoon and I don't feel the least bit guilty about it! After that back on my liquid so I will be ready when he can get me back on the schedule!

Wishing you the best.

This is a positive thing. Don't look upon it with negative thoughts.

Absolutely not! I believe in divine intervention and I know it didn't happen for A reason. It will happen eventually.

      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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
