Oregondaisy's turn for sleeve surgery



Recommended Posts

Well I am leaving for the airport to go to San Diego. It's a 2 hour ride to get to the airport.

I am excited and hope I didn't forget anything because I took care of my grand son this morning and he is a handful to watch and get anything done.

I don't have a lap top but I am hoping somebody will let me use a computer so I can check in.

Talk to everyone soon!

Daisy

Just wondering how you are doing. I sure wish you had your laptop. I will be thinking about you as you get your sleeve tomorrow.

The Lucerna Hotel has a business center with computers set up so I am able to check in.

Ernesto has already lost 25 lbs! Dr. Campos looks like a baby. I asked him if he is old enough to be a dr.

I lucked out and met up with a lady from Texas who is

Hispanic. She wanted to go to the mall. I got a good tour of Mexicalli. The taxi drivers drive like maniacs.

I feel so bad for her. She hasn´t been able to eat solid food for months. She came down here to see if her band slipped. She is moving to Greece. Dr. Aceves did her band so i told her i doubted if her band slipped. Dr. Campos completely unfilled her band as she has been sleeping sitting up for months. She´s had her band as long as me with only one fill and has had nothing but trouble. Makes me glad I am getting mine out! Dr. Campos gave her a prescription for Nexium and told her to stay on liquids another week.

Dr. Campos completely unfilled my band and told me to eat whatever I wanted so I had burger king in the food court. luckily, the lady I met speaks Spanish because nobody in that mall spoke English.

I had a lot of tests done and will be the first surgery in the A.m.

I am enjoying Mexicalli but my phone doesn´t work here

so that has been a problem.

I´ll try to borrow a computer tomorrow at the hospital.

Thank you everyone for your good wishes!

I'm so excited for you! Your big day is finally here!

I'm hoping your phone works at the hospital. I''m going to call you in a bit. You should still be at the hotel since it's 5:40AM! I'll give you 20 minutes and I'll call you then. ;o)

I decided you didn't need that extra 20 minutes of sleep. You need to be up and EXCITED about your big day!! You have plenty of time to sleep during surgery. You needed to talk to ME at 5:40AM this morning! HA!

I just talked to Nina (again) and Daisy is back in her room and doing well. I called at 1:30 and she was in recovery. She's back in her room.

I might give her another one of those "20 minutes" and call. Heh....

She slept enough in OR, she doesn't need more sleep. ;o))))))

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
