My surgery had to be cancelled

I'm so mad went to the hospital starved myself the day before all for nothing. My surgery was cancelled the surgeon said I was wheezing to much. I'm waiting on a call for the next date I will be rescheduled. Please say a prayer for me, I've been crying all morning and am too depressed to really talk just want to sit in self pitty and eat myself to death.

Girl I know you don'twant to hear this but don't eat yourself to death...just vent to us and we'll be here for you.. I hope things go better for you...I'm sorry ((hugzz)) Lisa By the way have you tried the BAF Forum? come check it out http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/member-interests/black_american/

Kelly: I am so sorry to hear that. I know its not a consellation right now but I am sure your Dr. did what he felt was in your best interest. Hopefully it won't be too long before you are re-scheduled Patty

I am so sorry that had to happen to you, but, you know if your lungs are not at their best you could be in danger. You are doing this to "live" a healthy life. So, have a couple of more days of eating the forbidden fruits as it were. YOU WILL be ok. It will be happening soon and you will forget this set back. God is looking out for you. I know this doesnt help the feeling of dissappointment or frustration, but try to think of it as a blessing. Good luck. My Prayers are with you. Viki

Hey Kelly, Stop crying, right now. Do you hear me? I also have asthma and your doc did you the biggest favor and gave you a blessing by postponing your WLS. The last thing you need is pneumonia after surgery. That's the kind of complication we all want to avoid at all costs. What good would it do to live through the surgery only to die of pneumonia? Your cost is to wait a little longer. I think that's a very small price to pay for a lifetime of heath you can look forward to I had to fast for 2 solid weeks before WLS and boy was I glad because I could breath better afterwards. I will keep you in my prayers and I know that the date you actually have surgery is the one that was meant by God for you. No crying. Only smiling. Sending warm blessings to you. Deanna

BIG HUGS for you. I am going through a terrible time too. My surgery might be cancelled. Monday (8/23) had my pre-op tests done. The EKG came back abnormal, either showing a previous mild heart attack or a "normal variance" on the test. Had to take the treadmill stress test. This wasn't abnormal, but it wasn't completely normal either so they labeled it "inderterminate". Great. So tomorrow, Friday (8/27 -- 3 days before surgery), I get to have another treadmill stress test then have an echocardiogram. The results will be read later in the day and I will get my results from my PCP doctor late in the afternoon. So 3 days prior to my surgery date, I will find out if they are going to let me have the surgery or not. Talk about stress!!!! I go from tears to being angry and then back to tears. I am trying hard to remember "Everything happens for a reason, everything happens as it should. It all happens in God's time, not mine." I don't know if it's really helping me, but I just keep repeating it in my head. I'll say a prayer for you right now. Please feel better. (You might need to remind me of this if I get cancelled ).

We don't always get what we want, I know, it sucks, but it may be for the better. You never know - things always happen for a reason. Just cheer up, no more cryin' ya hear , and know that your journey is around the corner -- just gotta deal with these BS bumps. take care and no more crying! norma g.
