Kaiser Richmond Pre-op

[momcof3 1]

dizlizd - Kaiser Richmond is a Kaiser hospital in Richmond CA that does bariatric surgery - the other two are Kaiser Fremont and Kaiser So San Francisco - patients from N. California have their surgeries at one of the three. Most of us on this thread have had our surgeries in Richmond but anyone is welcome. Where did you have your surgery on Jan 8?

[tamra. 6]

Tamra- I know you will be fine. Everything you are feeling I am very familiar with. Know that it will go quick and in 10 days you will feel normal again but a lot thinner. I tell you this is the BEST thing I could have done for myself and my family. Keep positive thoughts and positive will come your way.

Whats this?? is it the Barium swollow maybe? Can I assume I have a bright and early surgery??

yep its your barium swallow. Your surgery will be at 8 unless they have more than one lap-band tomorrow. I will be there tomorrow but not until 2, and you will be long gone home by then! Just think, in 24 hours from right now you will be banded and on your way home!!! You may even already be home and walking around. It's gonna be fine!!

[momcof3 1]

Yes that is the same time I had my barium swallow scheduled - although I ended up having it at 10:30 am. I believe it is a place holder. So it looks like you will be first up in the morning - if they tell you you need to be there at 6:30 am you will be the 8 am surgery. How exciting.

[tamra. 6]

Well I called and was told they are doing the schedule now and to call back in 15 mins LOL!

Hey Ladies & John

Talk about not sleeping - I'm EXHAUSTED - I finally napped yesterday for about 5 hours. This darn Cat has had me all wound up - I am damn near 3K deep for this gal! It cost 250.00 for lab work - UGH! Anyway - as of yesterday there is no more slobbing and she's pottying on a regular basis - she must be 100% cuz I have a few new holes in my hands. She HATES me - LOL - I'm the one that keeps forcing pills down her throat and taking her to see that awful man that keeps sticking her with needles - UGH!

So, back to the not sleeping - that's me but I keep rading the fridge at like 3 am - WTF?

Lee - no binder reviews for me either - just the test that you take out and hand to Liz.

Tam - I was weighed in two gowns. So excited for you - what time do you need to be there?

Heather - I am so friggin done with Brides/Weddings and all that jaz - However, we did pick out new dresses for the wedding so I can wear a bra now - whew! I just had to put my foot down cuz I can't be running around popping out the top of the dress!

Pammie - so sorry I didn't make it this weekend - I was so looking forward to it but my kitty was just awful! She almost had to get an enima (haha). All this for that little ungreateful brat cat!

Jes - sounds like the B-Day weekend was a success!

Dizllizd - Welcome to our humble group! Tell us about your journey...

John - hope you enjoy Cancun!
