Recommended Posts

Omg my date is the 20 th and these posts make me nervous will it be really really awful ?
I just had RNY on the 6th. Totally honestly, it's rough right now but I see some progress every day. I have to be remember to be patient and trust the process. The nerve are normal and I was feeling right up to them putting me out. Everyone's experience is different so try not to compare too much! I had a rough go and was in recovery for almost 6hrs instead of 2hrs...that may give you a hint of how my day went. [emoji6] You can do this!

RNY Dec 6, 2018

OMG I couldn't. I can barely look at the drain coming out of me. Hubby just tucked me back in bed. I had a nice long walk, my liquid Percocet, and I peed on my own lol. I do believe I've earned a nap time. I cannot wait to be comfy in my own bed. I'm also having issues with eating anything other than Water and ice chips. Hope that's goes away because the orange Jello is my fave. How are you feeling?

Well I can say... I have not had reflux in 2 days. So it is worth it. Reflux getting worse was my biggest concern but luckily I have a great surgeon!

My surgery got postponed AGAIN because te doctor's assistant (who calls herself a nurse, she is NOT!) kept neglecting to send tings to insurance, and se LOST 29 pages of my medical records I had sent directly to her from the Dietician back on Sept. 15th! They have confirmation she received them! I called the insurance company and she never sent them. When I called her, she said she never rec's them, I had the resent, the insurance then put it high priority but she is not taking responsibility, won't tell the Doctor and ask him to get me in this year before he goes on vacation. I have met all my deductibles and copays and this unprofessional nurse whom I have had to remind of every thing I had had to get done, make sleep assessment appt., make dietician appt., make Paychologist appt., etc., it is not my fault I keep getting delayed. Sorry, I am a little bumed and frustrated.

Hopefully she gets her act together real soon! Especially since u paid your deductible.

      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.
