I'm very close to Cincinnati in Middletown I have my surgery 12/12 with Dr. Trace Curry. I would love to meet people in this area who are going through the process or people who have been there and have wisdom about the process.

Just now saw your post...we should keep in touch since we're so close and have close surgery dates and the same surgeon. Are you having your surgery at Journeylite or at Jewish?

Recovery is going very well, I never had any pain or any nausea or anything. Of course I'm on puréed right now and sometimes I feel like I can eat and drink more than I am supposed to be able to. How about you, how is your recovery going?

I'm doing great! I had a lot of nausea at first but it has subsided and I'm doing better. I'm on puréed right now too and am having trouble drinking enough throughout the day but otherwise doing well.

Hello, I am getting a vsg on 2/13 from Dr Curry. I was wondering if one of you ladies could tell me if they put you under for the EDG?

Hi RLHgetsVSG! Congrats on your surgery! Yes,they do put you to sleep for the EGD. I went in to the surgery suite,was put to sleep, had procedure and in recovery in 20 minutes! Dr. Curry removed a polyp from my esophagus as well. He is an amazing surgeon!

Hopefully your pain eases, but it makes sense if you bend wrong or stand up too fast. I will have to try to keep that in mind.

I am through JourneyLite, Dr. Trace Curry.

What kind of pre-op diet were you on?

      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.
