So upset my surgery date keeps changing first Oct 18 then switched to nov 16 because of the coordinator rescheduled my psych evaluation then called and switched back to Oct 18 because the office magically got more appointments..

started my liquid diet oct 4

Now I get a call saying they haven't heard back from my insurance yet so they are rescheduling too OCT 26

So pissed what am I supposed to do now stay on liquid diet or start over in another week???

I don't wanna waste more shakes n have to buy more

Had my heart set on the 18..

I could cry I'm so hurt they keep doing this.

@@thesstrt

man oh man!!

office changing your surgery back and forth

they have their nerve!! :wacko:

i would be going cray (hubby just said "that's a short trip" LOL )

(we are two peas in a pod!)LOL

well, for now, at least the final change is just one week later than

the earlier postponement!! LOL

look at it this way - surgery 10/26 - NOT November

still disappointed - but you should be ok

if they change their mind again

punch them!! LOL

as far as pre-op Protein shakes

continue or not for one week??

if you can survive another week

with just liquids - that will help

your weight loss (honeymoon period)

liquids only are pretty hard for many

decision up to you

you could ask doc, he might say it's

up to you (cowards way out!)

good luck

speedy recovery

@@thesstrt I would call insurance to find out the status and call your surgeon's office back and tell them that you would like to keep it on 10/18/16. That's not fair to keep changing it on you - it's not as though you're going in to get your hair colored.

In the grande scheme of things, you hit a road bump. These things don't always go so smoothly, like us. But soon it will be history. Good luck.

      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!
