I am so sorry for the late response. By now you are recovering as well. My surgery went well and no complications thank God! I just had excess stomach cramping, but its because I was very swollen. I rarely get them now. Something weird is I get hic-ups overtime I'm full. Im approaching 2 weeks on 18th and excited to start pureed food in a couple of days.

I really do hope your experience was a good one. I know it gets pretty nerve racking right at last minute, but I know our lives will be better moving on and it will be very worth it.

Congratulations on your surgery today!!! I wish you a smooth surgery and a speedy recovery!

I also have Dr. Almanza, my surgery is scheduled for the 11th. PLEASE post a blog post of your post-op experience, symptoms you experienced, thoughts, etc. It would REALLY help me to feel more comfortable to be able to read your experiences. I'm having surgery alone and am needing a bit of extra reassurance now that it's soo close.
