24 hours till Revision!

The Gerd does seem better. I had some burning pain in the chest yesterday but it was minor. The dr said it was normal and for me to continue with my meds for awhile. I was also able to lay pretty flat last night and had no reflux. Fingers crossed this was exactly what I needed.

Hello,

I was wondering if it was hard for you to get approved for your revision?

Erica

It was a lot of work on my part. I had to get documentation for the past five years, my RX records, another psych eval, a physical from my PCP, blood work etc. I was approved quickly bc my gerd was so severe.

QC_Blondie,

Glad you provided us with an update. You are slaying the walking!! Keep it up and fast recovery. Take care of yourself.

Thank you so much! I'm so glad to be home recovering. Other than being sore everything is going good so far. Knock on wood! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Best of luck tomorrow and speedy recovery, I am two weeks out, and feel great, just walk and sip. I continued to measure my water in the little 2 oz cup and set my timer for every 15 minutes, so 8 oz in an hour. worked for me. You will do fine, keep us posted. Mary

Hi Mary,

thank you for your kind words of encouragement. I am actually a week out myself. It's crazy to think that its been a week already! I've been walking around a lot and doing well with my water. I have my surgical follow up tomorrow. So far no reflux issues, I am still on my meds though. My surgeon wants me to stay on them for awhile till things settle down. But I haven't had to take my 3rd medication and chew on tums all day like I was. So yay for that!
