Poppin in for only a few

Hey yall! Only stoppin in for a few to say hey!

I have a busy week ahead of me with Pre-op and Filter Placement this week. I really hope to make it to chat tomorrow night but if I can't I just wanted to keep yall up to date on things with me!

I start my 2 week pre-op liquid diet tomorrow. So excited that surgery is just around the corner!

If anyone has had the dvt filter put in through the neck can ya please tell me what to expect and how do you feel afterwards? I am more nervous about that than the actual gastric bypass surgery! 

Other news - My oldest son is home from Job Corps for a couple of weeks. Unexpected but glad to be able to spend some time with him. Yongest son is on Spring Break this week.  ** I have a feeling I am going to go crazy with both of them at home ** LOL

Hope yall have an awesome week and I will try to make it to chat but if not I will post soon as I can after I am home from having the filter put in on Thurs. ** I have to travel about 2 1/2 hours to Augusta and back, Tuesday and Thurs of this week **

Enjoy your kids Teresa.  Can't help any with the filter question.  Just know that your team is doing everything to ensure safe surgery and recovery.  Let us know how the filter placement goes.  Hugs

Hi Teresa, Hope everything goes well with the filter placement and with your liquid phase, will be thinking about you. Hang in there!

Thanks :)

I started my liquid diet yesterday and I went for pre-op today for both the filter placement and the gastric. I am sooooo excited.

I will be traveling back to Augusta tomorrow to spend the night and will be back home sometime on Thurs afternoon after the filter placement. Will post an update soon as I can.

Hi Teresa, How wonderful for you that things are moving right along. Looking forward to hearing from you after the procedure is done.  Mag
