TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY!



Recommended Posts

So tomorrow is surgery day and the start of my new beginning. [emoji1] I am so so so nervous but I know that it is going to be so worth it in the end. [emoji7] I am happy to be doing this not only for myself and my health but for my child. Idk I am scared, nervous, anxious, excited, happy, just so many emotions mixed in one. Goodluck to anyone whose date is tomorrow also. I wish you the best!

Good luck! Walk the halls as much as you're able, it will help you start getting rid of the gas and feeling a lot better.

Congratulations. I'm so excited for you and a little envious. Lol

I hope you continue to post about your journey. I'm hoping to have my sleeve done first part of December. Hope your recovery is a smooth one. Best wishes for you.

My surgery goal weight is 227. My scale reads 224.2. I had to track my food and exercise. Have done that since Sept 1.

Thursday 11/4 I have a phone call consult with the NUT. She needs to clear me for surgery. Fingers crossed.

I have a phone consult with psychologist on 11/17. She asked me to attend a Mindful Eating class for 5 weeks and no change to my depression or anxiety meds. My last class is the 16th. No change in meds.

So I'm really hoping to be cleared for surgery on the 17th.

My surgeon said surgery is usually 1-2 weeks after clearance.

If all goes according to plan (knock on wood) I should have surgery around 12/1.

Which is not really all that much time from starting to surgery. 3 months.

Hope you are doing well.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
