April 12th surgery sleeve/hernia repair

[Hayleyhehe 6]

So I'm day 3 on my 14 day liquid diet my dr ordered. I'm struggling a bit but so far so good. No cheating yet lol Anyone else have a surgery date soon? What did your DR request before surgery? What did he tell you to expect post surgery? My dr is also doing a hiatel (sp) hernia repair..anyone have one with their sleeve surgery?

Still trying to get the dr to commit to sleeve. I just had an UGI last week to see if I had a hernia which might get him to say yes to the sleeve. ( acid reflux) if he determines that is the cause of my reflux then he will do the sleeve. I do not want the bypass. I restarted this process after starting it 4 years ago. I asked for a second opinion to see if I could get this dr to okay the sleeve. If so , my surgery could be in May. (6 weeks out) Keeping fingers crossed and wishing you well with yours.

Good luck! I started the process in Aug 2015. I had to attend a 3 hour seminar and then my insurance required 7 months of medical weight loss through my surgeon. Feels like I've been waiting forever.

Yes i have a hiatus hernia caused by my band. My what a terrible device the band is. Seems almost everyone ends up with a hernia!

I have surgery date 19th April so start my pre-op phase soon.

Not looking forward to it. Done it before...its tough.
