January Surgery buddies

I was told to stop my sinemet for Parkinson’s disease before RNY. Anyone know if this is permanent?

Im January 18th !!! UNLESS the covid cancels it. Our local hospital just cancelled all non emergency surgeries because of covid for the first two weeks of January.

Hopefully for me, all systems GO!!! Fingers crossed.

Today I almost had a heart attack, they called me to delay the operation but it was only about the time not the day.

I get it.. Every time the phone rings I'm afraid it's the doctor calling to cancel surgery.

I’m on day 3 of my liquid diet, I ended up eating yesterday, it was small but I got back on track. I’m struggling a bit with my Protein Drinks. I was so use to mixing it with my iced coffee, that now without it I hate it, and have a tropical punch Protein Powder but it’s not filling. I’m definitely on the struggle bus with this.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
