I think that's a pretty normal reaction as the time gets closer. I've had several surgeries so you'd think that I'd be used to this by now, but I've gotten nervous before each and every one of them - usually starting a few days before.

Its a trip for sure !! You are lucky you get to sleep. I could not pee after surgery and was threatened with a catheter. I ended up being able to go early that evening. How is the hernia ? I think that hernia made it worse for the both of us. Hang in there

Hernia!!!! Horrendous! Eeek!

i think this is the worst. Worst than csections. Day 2 almost - better since they gave me something stronger than Tylenol. I was able to get in more liquids. Doing all the functions they want so I believe home today.
I wish they had a gastric pillow like last time ... might be a big help this time around. Maybe Amazon lol

@ge0rgette2 Are you kidding me ? They don't have you on something strong after going through all of that ? That is just horrible !

Do you not have a binder ? I asked for one immediately .

Ask them if they have a binder. It wraps around you and keeps everything from moving . I don't know what I would do without one. I need it to sleep because I move around a lot .

Is the Toradol working ? That crap would not have touched my pain.

Hope you are feeling better.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
