Glad ur getting on OK. I found it got worse before it got better. Last night I had that horrid night reflux. Not too bad but enough to keep waking me up so I'm knackered this morning!! I had some Water just before I went to sleep so that must've done it. I feel really tight this am - great! Hopefully it'll loosen throughout the day. I tried a bit of mushed food last night so that may have contributed (stayed on liquids pretty much for 6 days).

Hubby going back tomorrow :frown: for another 8 weeks. I'll be back at work by the time I see him again. Another horrible thought!! :smile2:

aw thats a wee shame about your hubby> I am getting the hang of my restriction now, i have sussed to really take time, i can only eat mushy food but thats cool, and at the first gurggle at back of throat to stop and wait then continue as i found out that carrying on after gurggle leads to a little pain and the forming of that lovely gloop and if it does not shift at that then the little bit of food in pouch comes up> i got that far a couple of times yesterday and after that i could get nothing down even water for a good few hours. Today i have got the hang and not Pb at all and managed to get decent ammount of Fluid, porridge for brekkie, a small plate of lentil curry then a small ammount (tiny) of rice with sauce tonight. I think i am very tight as meat is a no no but i am happy to put up with it as my weight has moved quite a bit even since thurs. I am so motivated again and just glad that the band is finally doing what its ment.:thumbup:

Hi All,

Could anyone who's been tell me what happens if you haven't booked direct with CDB (I booked with Bidget) about the consultation the night before. Should I phone him to say I'm here or will they look me up? Just crossed my mind, think the pre- nerves are starting to kick in now.

Cheers

Hi all Im back a bit sore and knackered. Would I do it again? In the blink of an eye. Everything went perfectly and arent their hospitals just great. I think I was first to go down I told frederic I was really nervous and he gave me a pre med tablet which really calmed me down. I remember being given an anaethetic at 9.05 and being woken up in the ward around 11. I feel around my port abit nippy and slightly burning. Still cant bend and to get out of bed is sore but so glad Ive done it. Jx

Hi Lischa

Lovely 2 hear from u I'm staying at the Campinile also.

I arrive about 10.30am on Mon as I thought I had a consultation (bloods,ecg, etc) that day but Frederik emailed me yesterday to say he'll see me in my room between 9 -10pm to sort out money etc.

Can anyone tell me do I need to bring waterproof dressings ?

Best wishes !!!! fatduck & rosetah :thumbup:

Hi Garry

Can I ask u do u feel like ur going to choke or have you ever choked ? ( I've suffered with reflux for the last few months and it's left me with a bit of a fear of choking ) hope each day continues to get easier for u.

We get on the eurotunnel about 12 lunchtime and then 2 hour drive approx to hotel, so i guess i should be there by mid afternoon. How do you get an email to frederick? I emailed DR Chris today but whether he or frederick will reply. I feel kinda vague about the whole experience, must have caught Brigit on bad days when i rang and only had the basis info, never heard of Frederick until i read the blogs today and was worried about the consulatation the night before.... can you tell me anything about it?

Hi vikki I cant answer your question but what I can say is there were 2 women at our hotel who hadnt booked direct and they were not at our meeting in the hotel. I dont know if they already had a consultation previous to going to the hotel or if frederic spoke to them privately in their room. He gave us all the data about the op and came to our room for the money. Good luck your in good hands jx:thumbup:
