SueSaBelle 57 Posted August 17, 2018 I feel the same mc2017! My surgery was changed from August 27th to September 5th because of the OR getting some changes. I will be having mine with Dr. Taylor at Barix Clinics of Michigan in Ypsilanti. This has been a long process that started in January 2018 because I had stage 4 osteoarthritis in my right hip. I have since had a total hip replacement but my left hip has stage 2 osteoarthritis. At 48, I am too young to feel this damn old. My orthopedic surgeon assures me that losing the extra weight will get me back to my dancing days with the Hubby. Thankfully, Hubby understands that I am doing this to get back to my old self and to be able to keep up with him. 4 1 Liz The New Me, Lora67, banksdea and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted August 17, 2018 Congratulations on your future RnY, I am happy to find a bypass surgery twin , the other 3 I know of are all sleeve candidates. I will have mine at Ohio State University with Dr Bradley J Needleman. I have been work8ng towards mine since August 2015, long twisted story, but it will be finally finished and then I can move forward into my future life with an effective helper. I have been so sick and tired of being sick and and tired. I fear surgery much less than continuing as I am. 3 1 Kbridge, Lora67, chris_marie and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lora67 20 Posted August 17, 2018 Just got my date today. Was hoping for end of September but ended up with October 2nd. Close enough for me. Excited and nervous at the same time. 3 MissPoodle, HappyHealthy18 and Liz The New Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissPoodle 58 Posted August 18, 2018 Hi everyone. So glad people answered!! It is great to have support and go through it together at the same stages. I am in Australia so my hospital and surgeon won't mean anything! I had a sleeve done jan 2015. Not really a problem till july 2017 when i started to get nausea and reflux. I ate more fatty foods and junk so started to gain weight. When i went to the surgeon last month and had a ct and gastroscopy...it showed i have gastritis and a kink in my sleeve. So on 19th sept (aussie time) i am having surgery to remove the kink and convert to bypass. Am currently eating some foods i like that i won't be able to eat afterwards and on 5th sept start my 2 week pre op diet. Feeling impatient but nervous at the same rimeSent from my SM-G950F using BariatricPal mobile app 2 clsumrall and Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted August 18, 2018 @ Miss Poodle, the same day you start your presurgery preparation I shall be having my RnY surgery. Any prayers and Good Wishes directed at me on that day I shall be grateful for. This is a brave new world we will be entering, but one I have been yearning for. 1 1 Frustr8 and clsumrall reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
