They are going to let me have my surgery now. I don't know what to expect now. I am more nervous than I was before grrrr.... I don't know if I can do this. The doctor said he won't have me do a bowel prep this time I am so confused. ..... Some helpful advice would be nice. Well that's it for now post more later.....

I'm so happy for you! All will be fine. :) Your doctor was being careful when he cancelled the surgery because he detected a heart abnormality. Now that they know what is going on they have determined that your bypass can be done safely. I have heart failure and my surgery went great. When the doctors know what your problems are ahead of time they can watch you carefully for anything going on that needs special medication. I also had terrible lung and breathing problems. I'm 2 years out from surgery and my heart now tested within normal range. My breathing problems have disappeared. My bloodpressure is text book perfect. I just had a ton of lab work done. Even my cholesterol is perfect. My surgeon was so happy that I've done so well. I think it's alot because I never miss taking my vitamins and supplements. I am so grateful for my surgery. It has changed my life!

Relax and all will be fine. Good Luck!!!

Of course I remember you. I felt very upset when your surgery was cancelled. It could have happened to anyone of us. I'm so glad you have been rescheduled. We are all bonded in our problems and success. We are here for each other. My heart will be with you on your day of surgery. I'm so very happy for you. Let me know how everything goes.

Sending you a big hug!

Cheyenne

Good luck tomorrow with your pre-op appointment!

We have a special bond that others cannot understand. Being overweight and not being able to lose weight, having bariatric surgery, we have a special sisterhood. You are my friend and I am so happy to get to know you!

Thanks Cheyenne for the good luck tomorrow afternoon for pre-op appt. I will tell you everything the doctor says. I have another thing going on too my heart doctor office called me today and told me there were negative things going on and he wants to run a special test for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. But it will not stop the surgery he said so I was glad of that. I don't know what I would have done if they stopped it again. I am glad I have someone to talk to about gril stuff I am surrounded by the guys most of the time. Well I talk to ya tomorrow after doctors
