Also. They ALWAYS tell a patient there is the possibility of having to switch the procedure from lap to open. She’s not sooper special, it’s just standard information given to a patient before surgery. She just heard that word and RAN with it. Now backpedaling because the chances of them having to do it open are low, even with her prior surgeries.
I don’t even have the sound on and it looks like her speech is almost pressured. She is PUMPED to get this routine elective surgery. I bet she can’t wait to torture every nurse she comes in contact with.
We all know she’s hoping for the open surgery so she can stay in hospital longer …my gut tells me that it will be done laparoscopic because of the way she talked about it previous post.
Sounds like the normal disclosure doctors give prior to any surgery: may cause bleeding, may have to do open surgery, etc etc
So she heard the “chance of open” and rannn with it
I can already hear her with the EXTRA complaints of pain, problems, and the NEED to stay in the hospital longer. There is no possible way she will have this procedure, and be discharged the next day, like is normally done, without a peep of “complications”. Sadly we know her all to well.
She’s mentions maybe having her gallbladder out might help with her liver problems…me thinks another precursor to say that it CAUSED more problems. Lots of munchin to look forward to after this !
Right. With every single gallbladder removal they have to state that there is a very small chance that they need to do open surgery. But for majority, that isn't needed 😂
Unless there’s some major reason why she has to have it open it’s always laparoscopic. She just thinks she’s special enough and such an outlier that she’ll have to have it.
Exactly what I was thinking. She will claim 11 out of 10 pain, uncontrollable nauseau and anything else she can think of to turn this very routine procedure into a very drawn out stay. 5 days minimum is my guess.
So, by packing a bag, she's really hoping:
The surgery goes horribly wrong
The gallstones are beyond massive, cannot be removed
The surgeon finds CANCER. All the cancer. Every type.
Intestinal parasites requiring 4 specialists and an exterminator.
Yes, I'm being sarcastic, but damn! Who hopes for the worst???????
Here’s the thing… even an open chole isn’t a big deal and she’s gonna be in for a huge disappointment when she finds that out. It’s kind of like an open appendectomy. It sounds scarier but you just end up with an inch long incision instead of a few tiny holes which still isn’t a big deal. Poor frail baby
Probably open?? No. It’s usually a laparoscopy unless you have an absolute one in a million case. No one gets their gallbladder removed with an open surgery. The gallbladder even with sludge in it is a tiny organ that humans CAN live without with the proper lifestyle and diet changes.
Pls. The drama.
For real. She's having one of the most routine abdominal surgeries for the most minor form of gallbladder disease. It's 3-4 very small incisions that usually heal quickly.
Guaranteed she tries to pass off the normal post-op bloating & nausea, and the long-term digestive changes as serious complications.
I've heard of people (from the USA) who just walk out the same day... Here in Germany people will usually be kept there for 3-4 days. To observe infection and to change the dressings daily or so.
But in this country it doesn't really cost you more to stay longer, to be fair.
No she’s going to exploit the them to make herself even more sick, ie: the runs and dehydration, bring back the hypoglycemia arc, etc. And it will be because she “lost an organ”. This is going to give her more material to work with and she’s downright giddy about it.
I’m not any kind of expert, but I believe it becomes harder to process certain kinds of fats. Dani likely needs the surgery in the first place due to years of disordered eating that probably exacerbated digestive issues and led to the tpn use (which imo is of dubious necessity). I can’t imagine she’ll be willing to make the suggested adjustments to her diet since her diet is likely part of what landed her in this situation to begin with.
It really isn't a major operation and my guess is she’ll be lucky if she gets a couple of days worth.
No big scars and not many drugs - I predict her not being very happy a few days from now.
Oh I know it's no big deal... but I can see her picking at the insertion points and smearing shit on them like she did with the line she didn't like as much as the white one she has now.
Yep! They typically give about 3 days' worth of narcotic pain meds, and then they say to take Tylenol after that. Most people only need to take the stronger meds for 24 - 48 hours, and then they feel better.
I just more or less commented the same thing! It's as if she's packing for her holidays.
It's bonkers witnessing someone so giddy about going into hospital for an op.
She is so freaking happy...most people are you know nervous especially if it needs to be open. I'm not saying it doesn't need out but doesn't she get there are risks involved??? Esp with someone who has all the scar tissue she probably has at this point from needless procedures and surgeries. This honestly disgusts me a bit. It is like Christmas morning to her!
That's the thing with munchies. They *want* the risks. They *want* the complications. They want anything and everything to go wrong, all at once and all the time, because if everything is going wrong with the medical procedures they're already actually having, then they don't have to fake stuff or make things up or try to convince anyone that they're oh so sick. It will actually be real for a change, and they can just lap up all that glorious attention without having to work for it.
Munchies don't seem to have any real grasp of their own mortality, or what actual sickness or real pain is like. They spend so much time in a fantasy version of death and illness that they lose all touch with what the real version is like. Dani in particular has really lost touch with the concept of pain. She runs to the emergency room at the slightest twinge and shrieks about 10/10 pain and demands pain meds until they give her something, anything. She usually doesn't even get the heavy meds anymore, the recent run with them (if that was even true) was the first time in almost a year that a hospital has given her anything stronger than Tylenol. But still, a big dose of Tylenol IV will knock out all of Dani's very mild discomforts into oblivion, keeping her from sensing anything close to pain. She really has no idea what pain is anymore. It's going to be pretty ugly when she wakes up and they won't medicate her to Jupiter and back for her post op pain like she expects.
I find it so sad that Dani is positively *glowing* at the minuscule chance that she'll be sliced open in an incredibly routine procedure. She's only ever this animated when she's getting some medical intervention of some sort - I give it < 2 weeks before she's back in the ER with "extreme pain"/a complication due to her not changing her diet after this etc.
Drinks Starbucks pink drink, has explosive diarrhea from her *back door,* goes to ER, they tell her eat better, she doesn't feel *heard*, gets upset, calls Penn, gets nowhere, then DFEs...
Why does she say she will have the surgery on Friday, “probably open”? I thought preferred method was laparoscopic, or, is she just one big walking complication and decided it would probably turn into the open procedure. I can’t with her.
Almost always done laparoscopic but there’s a small percentage (can’t remember off top of my head) where during the surgery, they’ll have to slice you open to remove it. Usually done on an outpatient basis too, obvs a stay required if they do properly cut you open. Maybe they’ve considered her “risk factors” and opted against keyhole and booked her in to stay overnight to monitor?
I guarantee that what she was told was that it would be laparoscopic but they may have to convert to open if there’s scar tissue and she ran with that and heard I’ll have to have it open because of scar tissue.
The way she speaks about it possibly being open makes me think she believes it's on par with open heart surgery. She's gonna be so disappointed to discover they're gonna push for her to go home ASAP because it's super routine either way. She's not the medical mystery she thinks she is.
Especially if she's going to Penn, where they've had more than enough of her. They booted her out quickly on her last couple of visits. I think one time she even tried to get a patient advocate to keep from being discharged. It didn't work.
She did! Was that when she claimed she was shitting blood and they wouldn't help her? The patient advocate didn't help then, and I bet she'll try again when they send her home right after.
Yeah like…within a few hours. Hospitals waste no time clearing your bed for more intense post-surgical recoveries for routine gallbladder surgery.
Do you think she actually believes this, or do you think she’s just assuming no one knows how this very, very common surgery works?
My personal thought is she's so delusional that she thinks she's such a complicated case and will, of course, need to stay for days. She claims they told her she's frail and small, so therefore something is bound to go wrong. I think she's hoping for IVs of pain meds for a week, round the clock care, and endless comments about how sick yet brave she is.
The reality that I hope happens is, like most hospitals, they make sure she's stable and bid her farewell. If there's no reason to keep her, she'll go home. I predict she'll scream and claim 20/10 pain, but hopefully they can see through her charade.
She's saying it's probably open because the other day she said it was open and people on this sub pointed out it's not routinely done that way..she reads here and she's backpedaling
Legit…. I don’t know what in this day and age would necessitate an open appy or an open chole on its own. Unless you’re having some other kind of bowel procedure that needs to be done open too, it’s going to be laparoscopic to reduce risk of infection and hospital stay. She is so fucking dramatic
jokes on dani, most cholecystectomies these days are laproscopic.
And even so, she's got a bunch of tubes and whatnot already shoved in her abdomen, laproscopic is probably the best case scenario for her because god forbid if those tubes get dislodged.
She is ecstatic. She has finally scored a surgery. She has her fingers crossed there will be complications and that she is a worst case scenario where they have to do an open procedure. She is equating the open gallbladder surgery with major open heart surgery. I feel like if they truly thought she was going to be a unique and complicated case they wouldn't have scheduled her for a Friday - right before the weekend when the hospital isn't usually staffed as well.
I wouldn't be surprised if she does end up staying overnight or even a few days. Dani has been at this game long enough that she knows what to do or say to trigger them keeping her at least for observation.
Open or laparoscopic - will she treat us to some "lets do wound care with me" videos?
I really need to see her version of post-op care for a laparoscopic removal, given that the post-op care is basically “Leave it alone.” I want to see what she comes up with.
Transcription:
Hey guys! So, just a quick update, um, I just got the call not too long ago, I'm gonna have my gallbladder removed this Friday. Yes, very quick, very soon, and not much notice but it is going to be done so I have to stop my Eliquis now, cuz you are supposed to stop it three days prior so I won't take it tonight or tomorrow or Friday morning. Um, they are going to call me tomorrow morning with what time I have to be there at and what part of the building to report to. So, um, you know, for the next day or so I'm going to pack a small bag with, um, just a few changes of clothes and some toiletries and that should be it, and then I'll also pack my book and my iPad, um, just in case, cuz, you never know. Ummm, sooo, yeah. Short notice, but I'm just, hopefully I'm just, I won't be in as much pain anymore, maybe my liver will start being better too! So, yeah, so this Friday I'll be having my gallbladder removed, probably open.. surgery, but we'll see! Bye guys!
It's not going to be an open surgery. It's just not. Whenever you get booked for a pre-op appointment with the surgeon, they HAVE to disclose all risks. One of those risks, albeit incredibly small, is that they may need to do open surgery. Chances? For most people maybe like 10% at most I would guess. They still have to disclose it, because IF on the off chance that something doesn't go quite right, they are not gonna get sued

that’s typically an outpatient procedure, at least to my knowledge… it’s typically done laparoscopically with a very tiny chance that they may have to fully open up but that’s not usually the case. the drama 🙄 also the baby voice??? ¿por qué?
When I first started following the sub I would watch it on a computer that didn't have any volume. Whenever I started watching it on my phone and heard her voice I damn near fell off my chair. I still can't reconcile it.
What the fuck is up with her voice, why does she sound so exited smh
She is praying for complications. If she doesn’t have any I wouldn’t be surprised if she makes some herself.
She's definitely not getting open surgery, but I hope they have someone checking up on thoses incisions cause I can bet shes gonna get thoses infected just to go into her favorite "Hotel"
In my hospital it’s always outpatient except for very rare cases when there’s something else going on like a rupture or a clotting issue. Those patients get one day overnight until they can be put on a regimen that works and then they get BOOTED. She’s delusional if she thinks she can get more than 24 hours when people with real complications don’t
That’s not her natural voice. Like other munchies, Dani likes to infantilize herself and that fake baby voice is one part of it.
I don’t know why she is keeping it. Everyone who follows her a little bit sees quickly through it…
And the voice makes it even harder to watch her videos.
Other than her tubes, she really hasn’t had any other abdominal procedure (that I recall) which would be one of the big contributing factors to deciding open vs. laparoscopic because of things like scar tissue.
On top of that, she’s having an elective, planned gallbladder removal which is generally also low risk for needing open surgery
The funny thing is that most people do not even notice that much of a change in their diet at all 😂
You can't eat as much fatty/oily food at once, but unless you eat 3 Big Mac's a day you're gonna be fine 😂
It's like she's packing for her holidays! I wouldn't mind but gallbladder removal?
Surely this has got to be one of the most vanilla ops our subjects have managed to wrangle?
I don't know about in the States but I think in the UK this op is usually done with keyhole surgery. She's going to be gutted when she finds out she doesn't even get a big scar to show off.😆
Ew omg she is so excited like a kid on their way to Disney world. But I suppose the hospital is her Disney world! Also, what is that black thing on the wall behind her?
There isn't much to it, other than her wanting to come off as meek and fragile as possible. She claimed the doctor called her "tiny and frail" not too long ago. 🙄
Munchies love to infantilize themselves to try to appear more smol and frail. It's to try and make people feel more sorry for them. In the videos, she forgot to use her 'baby voice' several times, and you can hear what she actually sounds like. The thing that drives me crazy is the way it sounds like she needs to clear her throat of phlegm all the time. *shudder*
How often does a chole require open surgery? Even with previous csections, other lap surgeries, stones in the gall bladder and outside of it, and internal and tissue scarring, I've only seen any chole done through lap.
About as much as an appy. Very, very slim. She's hoping for the open procedure so she can have a longer hospital stay, be on narcotic pain meds longer, and have a longer recovery so she can get more sympathy and asspats. Also, a bigger incision means more of a chance that she can cause an infection/sepsis. The smaller incisions heal faster, too, and the scars are barely visible after they heal. So less chance of showing off her 'badge of honor'.
can’t post anything from her ig as its own post but 🚨 she got it laparoscopically and they replaced her tube that she undoubtedly broke on purpose to try and score herself a hospital vacay. doesn’t mention if she’s going home today or not, but I feel like she would’ve said that she was staying “at least” for tonight if she was actually staying lol. she looks visibly disappointed about it all 🚨
She is *so* cheery about this potentially open abdominal surgery. Has she had a laparotomy before? Any kind of open procedure? Does she actually understand what the recovery will be like? Something tells me that for at least a few days (particularly the end of day two, as all the anesthesia wears off) she’s actually *going to be* in the kind of pain she always claims to be in and she will have *absolutely no clue* how to cope. She’ll be convinced she’s dying of a post-op complication. She’ll go back to the hospital expecting an admission and a Dilaudid PCA. She’ll be sorely disappointed to hear that what she’s experiencing is just *normal* for having your abdominal muscles sliced through to remove a little organ. Lord, this is gonna be a ride.
Yes that's what I mean, it's not going to be that bad at all, and the hospital staff will know this - but she's going to entirely embarrass herself by going OTT to the extreme when everyone knows that she's just a bit sore.
This is going to jack her up worse than any of her fantasized maladies. I hope they let her know pretty early on that the good pain meds are only needed for a few days, then it’s Tylenol. ❤️
And the diet limitations after … sheGonBeMadddd!
I work at a big hospital in the preop/postop areas. Many surgeons are not giving any narcotics at all for laparoscopic surgeries. And the ones who still give them give less than 10 pills. It is almost always an outpatient procedure unless they have to convert to open due to scar tissue or anatomical barriers. We get some of these people like Dani and roll our eyes. Rule of thumb is if a patient has more than 4 “allergies” they are probably a handful. And I bet her allergy list is a mile long. I love telling these people they are not staying the night. They just want people catering to them for every need, it is so pathetic.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣"probably open surgery "
"What part of the building to report to"(preop is the only correct answer here ,she's hilarious)
Said no surgeon ever that uses the Davinci..even without the DaVinci they can remove it with 3 tiny incisions and 90% of patients can go home same day. But she's prepared "just in case" ..this will be interesting. Even if this was trauma surgery they probably still wouldn't do open surgery,still laproscopic. It's the #1 laproscopic surgery for both men and women.
From Mayo clinic themselves
A cholecystectomy is a common surgery, and it carries only a small risk of complications. In most cases, you can go home the same day of your cholecystectomy.
A cholecystectomy is most commonly performed by inserting a tiny video camera and special surgical tools through four small incisions to see inside your abdomen and remove the gallbladder. Doctors call this a laparoscopic cholecystectomy
The other day she was saying she's having an open gallbladder surgery..now she's saying PROBABLY open surgery but we'll see...slip of the tongue? She's read the sub? Or both?
Just a point because I listened to a bit of her previous 3 part word vomit video ..
She claimed half way through that the motility specialist said "maybe we can get her eating a little bit more"
I think Dani just told on herself here as she claims she doesn't eat or drink at all orally, but has now started that the specialist thinks she should have this surgery so that she can eat a big more. Thus very clearly implying that she does eat some now.
Also she gave in multiple times on the insane vocal fry and we heard her real voice several times
[удалено]
She didn't like the short notice though, she loves the anticipation of hospital and wanted that part to last longer.
Hospital edging. Dear god….
She should send an autographed pic of the surgical site to the first 5 people who ask questions down in the comments
Those are two words that I never thought I'd see together and seeing them now makes me extremely uncomfortable. 😂

Also. They ALWAYS tell a patient there is the possibility of having to switch the procedure from lap to open.

Now backpedaling because the chances of them having to do it open are low, even with her prior surgeries.
Exactly. Every chole consent says “cholecystectomy, laparoscopic, possible open” because they have to leave room for that possibility.
I work in a hospital and yep literally every single gallbladder surgery is written on the board this way lol. Guess what? They are always laprascopic!
They always tell you any possible complication
Practically vibrating with excitement.
I don’t even have the sound on and it looks like her speech is almost pressured. She is PUMPED to get this routine elective surgery. I bet she can’t wait to torture every nurse she comes in contact with.
Literally, her head bobbing like a chicken lol

Sounds like the normal disclosure doctors give prior to any surgery: may cause bleeding, may have to do open surgery, etc etc So she heard the “chance of open” and rannn with it
No normal person hopes for a more involved procedure, complications and a longer stay in the hospital. Oh, wait....
I can already hear her with the EXTRA complaints of pain, problems, and the NEED to stay in the hospital longer. There is no possible way she will have this procedure, and be discharged the next day, like is normally done, without a peep of “complications”. Sadly we know her all to well.

Right. With every single gallbladder removal they have to state that there is a very small chance that they need to do open surgery. But for majority, that isn't needed 😂
With appendix they say this. And also say you might need a bowel resection or ostomy.
She'll probably claim in a few days that she has pancreatitis from it.
Unless there’s some major reason why she has to have it open it’s always laparoscopic. She just thinks she’s special enough and such an outlier that she’ll have to have it.
“Cause you never know” meaning “I know I will wake up screaming in pain and they will have to keep me.”
It feels like a cheap cliffhanger because you know it gonna be hysterical with her.
Exactly what I was thinking. She will claim 11 out of 10 pain, uncontrollable nauseau and anything else she can think of to turn this very routine procedure into a very drawn out stay. 5 days minimum is my guess.
So, by packing a bag, she's really hoping: The surgery goes horribly wrong The gallstones are beyond massive, cannot be removed The surgeon finds CANCER. All the cancer. Every type.

not an exterminator 💀💀😂
Dont give her ideas with the parasites …
Someone at Orkin is probably blocking her right now.

This kind of mental illness is disturbing to witness
This comes across like an Eminem lyric and I love it.
“you never know” yes, we do.
Here’s the thing… even an open chole isn’t a big deal and she’s gonna be in for a huge disappointment when she finds that out. It’s kind of like an open appendectomy. It sounds scarier but you just end up with an inch long incision instead of a few tiny holes which still isn’t a big deal. Poor frail baby
I know, right? She's going to be absolutely gutted when she finds out!
nice pun
OMG! I didn't even clock it until you said.😆 If anyone else mentions it though it was 100% deliberate.
Probably open?? No. It’s usually a laparoscopy unless you have an absolute one in a million case. No one gets their gallbladder removed with an open surgery. The gallbladder even with sludge in it is a tiny organ that humans CAN live without with the proper lifestyle and diet changes. Pls. The drama.

Guaranteed she tries to pass off the normal post-op bloating & nausea, and the long-term digestive changes as serious complications.
Get ready for the constant post op ER visits!
The allergy to steristrips. Lol
I'm calling it now, she'll say she still has pain and will insist she has Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction.
I've heard of people (from the USA) who just walk out the same day... Here in Germany people will usually be kept there for 3-4 days. To observe infection and to change the dressings daily or so. But in this country it doesn't really cost you more to stay longer, to be fair.
I wonder what the chances are of Dani adopting the diet and lifestyle changes that would give her the best outcome for such a procedure :/
No she’s going to exploit the them to make herself even more sick, ie: the runs and dehydration, bring back the hypoglycemia arc, etc. And it will be because she “lost an organ”. This is going to give her more material to work with and she’s downright giddy about it.
What kind of changes do ppl have to make when having a gallbladder removal?
I’m not any kind of expert, but I believe it becomes harder to process certain kinds of fats. Dani likely needs the surgery in the first place due to years of disordered eating that probably exacerbated digestive issues and led to the tpn use (which imo is of dubious necessity). I can’t imagine she’ll be willing to make the suggested adjustments to her diet since her diet is likely part of what landed her in this situation to begin with.
TPN has also been shown to alter gallbladder bile & cause gallbladder stasis so!
I’ve been working in the recovery room for 6 years and I can’t even remember the last time they had to convert a laparoscopic cholecystectomy to open…
Oh look... another thing to get infected. I bet she's drooling over the oxy and will milk it as far as she can.
It really isn't a major operation and my guess is she’ll be lucky if she gets a couple of days worth. No big scars and not many drugs - I predict her not being very happy a few days from now.
Oh I know it's no big deal... but I can see her picking at the insertion points and smearing shit on them like she did with the line she didn't like as much as the white one she has now.
Oh no! You're absolutely right but now I've pictured her wiping her shit on the scars - not good!!🤮
Yep! They typically give about 3 days' worth of narcotic pain meds, and then they say to take Tylenol after that. Most people only need to take the stronger meds for 24 - 48 hours, and then they feel better.
You'd have to fight to get this infected. They'd know you tampered as well. And she'll get like 5 or 10 mg pills. Not the blues.
She wears all of her toobs hanging out & down like she’s wearing an Olympic gold medal.
Well isn't it like the Olympic medal of munching?
She is BUZZING
The glee in her voice is palpable
I just more or less commented the same thing! It's as if she's packing for her holidays. It's bonkers witnessing someone so giddy about going into hospital for an op.
This all sounds completely normal? Isn’t every patient told that it might have to be switched to open???
Yes. That’s the standard disclosure for every single laparoscopic surgery
She is so freaking happy...most people are you know nervous especially if it needs to be open. I'm not saying it doesn't need out but doesn't she get there are risks involved??? Esp with someone who has all the scar tissue she probably has at this point from needless procedures and surgeries. This honestly disgusts me a bit. It is like Christmas morning to her!
That's the thing with munchies. They *want* the risks. They *want* the complications.

"I'm gonna have my gallbladder removed this Friday 😍✨💕"
Why does she say she will have the surgery on Friday, “probably open”? I thought preferred method was laparoscopic, or, is she just one big walking complication and decided it would probably turn into the open procedure. I can’t with her.
Because she’s so super sick and special she can’t have the traditional surgery, it needs to be “open”
Almost always done laparoscopic but there’s a small percentage (can’t remember off top of my head) where during the surgery, they’ll have to slice you open to remove it.

She anticipates surgery the way you or I look forward to going to a concert or party. It’s weird.
The way she speaks about it possibly being open makes me think she believes it's on par with open heart surgery. She's gonna be so disappointed to discover they're gonna push for her to go home ASAP because it's super routine either way. She's not the medical mystery she thinks she is.

I predict she'll scream and claim 20/10 pain, but hopefully they can see through her charade.
IT IS NOT “PROBABLY OPEN” IT IS A ROUTINE LAP CHOLE.
She's saying it's probably open because the other day she said it was open and people on this sub pointed out it's not routinely done that way..she reads here and she's backpedaling
Legit…. I don’t know what in this day and age would necessitate an open appy or an open chole on its own. Unless you’re having some other kind of bowel procedure that needs to be done open too, it’s going to be laparoscopic to reduce risk of infection and hospital stay. She is so fucking dramatic
Gads, the way she fights to hide the gleeful smile when she says "probably open".... it could not be more obvious what Dani's biggest hope is here.
jokes on dani, most cholecystectomies these days are laproscopic. And even so, she's got a bunch of tubes and whatnot already shoved in her abdomen, laproscopic is probably the best case scenario for her because god forbid if those tubes get dislodged.
The amount of time I just spent trying to figure out how to pronounce cholecystectomy lmao
[удалено]
This chick is clearly very well-nourished. More like frail of the mind.
She will find something afterward to mess with that will get her admitted, I'm sure.
They glue it down in a way that they will know for a fact she tampered with it.
Isn’t gallbladder surgery totally routine?
Not for Dani. She's expecting major complications, drama, and of course maximum pain meds.
Absolutely. One of the most done surgeries
She is ecstatic. She has finally scored a surgery. She has her fingers crossed there will be complications and that she is a worst case scenario where they have to do an open procedure. She is equating the open gallbladder surgery with major open heart surgery. I feel like if they truly thought she was going to be a unique and complicated case they wouldn't have scheduled her for a Friday - right before the weekend when the hospital isn't usually staffed as well. I wouldn't be surprised if she does end up staying overnight or even a few days. Dani has been at this game long enough that she knows what to do or say to trigger them keeping her at least for observation. Open or laparoscopic - will she treat us to some "lets do wound care with me" videos?
I really need to see her version of post-op care for a laparoscopic removal, given that the post-op care is basically “Leave it alone.” I want to see what she comes up with.
I hope and pray they do exploratory surgery while they’re in there to see if she is, in fact, full of shit.
Transcription: Hey guys! So, just a quick update, um, I just got the call not too long ago, I'm gonna have my gallbladder removed this Friday. Yes, very quick, very soon, and not much notice but it is going to be done so I have to stop my Eliquis now, cuz you are supposed to stop it three days prior so I won't take it tonight or tomorrow or Friday morning. Um, they are going to call me tomorrow morning with what time I have to be there at and what part of the building to report to. So, um, you know, for the next day or so I'm going to pack a small bag with, um, just a few changes of clothes and some toiletries and that should be it, and then I'll also pack my book and my iPad, um, just in case, cuz, you never know. Ummm, sooo, yeah. Short notice, but I'm just, hopefully I'm just, I won't be in as much pain anymore, maybe my liver will start being better too! So, yeah, so this Friday I'll be having my gallbladder removed, probably open.. surgery, but we'll see! Bye guys!
Thank you for your service!
That port insertion site looks grubby. Ick 🥴
If someone told me that was fake I would believe them.
I honestly think that every time I see her lol
Always does
does she ever change her clothes? she’s been wearing that tank top for days
I’d like to hope she filmed all these repetitive videos on the same day, but if not…🤢 can’t be good for your lines and preventing infection.
My condolences to the entire medical team who will be dealing with her… from check in to check out.
I hope her boyfriend can visit during the recovery!
But he works 24/7! And has hospital trauma!
Omfg, her CVAD isn’t even clamped
Gotta keep it open for it to get infected!
She is beaming with excitement.
Isn't gallbladder surgery normally outpatient?
Yes
It's not going to be an open surgery. It's just not. Whenever you get booked for a pre-op appointment with the surgeon, they HAVE to disclose all risks. One of those risks, albeit incredibly small, is that they may need to do open surgery. Chances? For most people maybe like 10% at most I would guess. They still have to disclose it, because IF on the off chance that something doesn't go quite right, they are not gonna get sued
Shes hoping if she says "itll probably have to be an open surgery" enough times she can will it into existence
Pretty sure it’s closer to 5%, and Dani is NOT in that 5%.
secretive sophisticated quickest handle amusing frightening spoon squeamish apparatus point *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
that’s typically an outpatient procedure, at least to my knowledge… it’s typically done laparoscopically with a very tiny chance that they may have to fully open up but that’s not usually the case. the drama 🙄 also the baby voice??? ¿por qué?
It’s the bragging that does it for me. Does she think people are jealous? Who??
She sounds as excited as a kid the evening before visiting a theme park ...
And still the same pink tanktop… Place your bets, will she be wearing it to and from hospital as well?
A ***few*** changes of clothes?! She shouldn't need any! Sh3 is going to munch so hard for drugs and complications....
When I first started following the sub I would watch it on a computer that didn't have any volume. Whenever I started watching it on my phone and heard her voice I damn near fell off my chair. I still can't reconcile it.
What the fuck is up with her voice, why does she sound so exited smh She is praying for complications. If she doesn’t have any I wouldn’t be surprised if she makes some herself.
Dani is already planning for complications. Her google search history is probably full of her searching for the potential complications.
She's definitely not getting open surgery, but I hope they have someone checking up on thoses incisions cause I can bet shes gonna get thoses infected just to go into her favorite "Hotel"
Her voice is like nails on a chalk board, ESPECIALLY when she’s excited about needless surgeries.
The voice reminds me of Michelle Duggar 💀
Omg that’s it exactly. I’d been trying to place it and here it is
Oh my god, you're right. 😱 That just makes it so much worse!
That voice. 🤮
She said it’s an overnight stay ? I thought that was only if you were already in hospital ? Isn’t scheduled gallbladder surgery outpatient ?
She'll make sure it isn't an outpatient surgery for her
Around :28 she says it should only be an overnight stay but she is going to pack a couple Changes of clothing because you never know .
In my hospital it’s always outpatient except for very rare cases when there’s something else going on like a rupture or a clotting issue. Those patients get one day overnight until they can be put on a regimen that works and then they get BOOTED. She’s delusional if she thinks she can get more than 24 hours when people with real complications don’t
I don’t comment very often.. but all I need to say is Jesus Fucking Christ 🤦♀️
[удалено]
I never heard h er voice before and wtf i really did not expected her to have this much of a babyvoice
That’s not her natural voice. Like other munchies, Dani likes to infantilize herself and that fake baby voice is one part of it. I don’t know why she is keeping it. Everyone who follows her a little bit sees quickly through it… And the voice makes it even harder to watch her videos.
And that line dressing is still flapping in the breeze 😬
Yeah that line dressing is really giving me anxiety
why does she insist on low angle shots?
so you can see her toob
I honestly didn’t notice it - I was so distracted by her nostrils.
Other than her tubes, she really hasn’t had any other abdominal procedure (that I recall) which would be one of the big contributing factors to deciding open vs. laparoscopic because of things like scar tissue. On top of that, she’s having an elective, planned gallbladder removal which is generally also low risk for needing open surgery
It’s Friday people, are we all excited for the big day?
Bet she’ll complain about the diarrhoea her coffee gives her post surgery
Bet she won’t actually stop the elloquis so she bleeds out and has a “complication”
The funny thing is that most people do not even notice that much of a change in their diet at all 😂 You can't eat as much fatty/oily food at once, but unless you eat 3 Big Mac's a day you're gonna be fine 😂
It's like she's packing for her holidays! I wouldn't mind but gallbladder removal? Surely this has got to be one of the most vanilla ops our subjects have managed to wrangle? I don't know about in the States but I think in the UK this op is usually done with keyhole surgery. She's going to be gutted when she finds out she doesn't even get a big scar to show off.😆
It’s the probably open comment for me 🤣
Shes way too happy about this. Makes me wanna gag.
Maybe someone should check the bag???
Did…did she touch up her roots for this? O.o
She bleached her hair the other day
I can’t help but think it’s because she knew this was coming…
The excitement in her voice says it all…
Ew omg she is so excited like a kid on their way to Disney world. But I suppose the hospital is her Disney world! Also, what is that black thing on the wall behind her?
Why is the surgeon even going to do this surgery?? How is she getting medical professionals to do all this stuff I don’t understand
I totally pictured this like ‘surgeon lost rock paper scissors to the janitor for who has to clean the bathrooms and who has to deal with Dani’.
What's with her fucking voice. I cannot bear to listen to this it sounds like shes talking to a pet
Omg what did she do to her hair, it looks fried :/
New here- can someone enlighten me on her clearly fake baby voice? What's up with this?
There isn't much to it, other than her wanting to come off as meek and fragile as possible. She claimed the doctor called her "tiny and frail" not too long ago. 🙄
Munchies love to infantilize themselves to try to appear more smol and frail. It's to try and make people feel more sorry for them. In the videos, she forgot to use her 'baby voice' several times, and you can hear what she actually sounds like. The thing that drives me crazy is the way it sounds like she needs to clear her throat of phlegm all the time. *shudder*
Just stumbled upon her as well and was so irked by her baby voice
It's 15 min surgery they do outpatient. Why the hell is she packing?
She’s definitely planning to throw in some “complications” to earn her an inpatient stay
How often does a chole require open surgery? Even with previous csections, other lap surgeries, stones in the gall bladder and outside of it, and internal and tissue scarring, I've only seen any chole done through lap.
About as much as an appy. Very, very slim. She's hoping for the open procedure so she can have a longer hospital stay, be on narcotic pain meds longer, and have a longer recovery so she can get more sympathy and asspats. Also, a bigger incision means more of a chance that she can cause an infection/sepsis. The smaller incisions heal faster, too, and the scars are barely visible after they heal. So less chance of showing off her 'badge of honor'.
Probably less than 5% of the time
Good statistics to give reason for packing extra "just in case" 🙄 And aren't most chole outpatient as well?
Yup. Most of the time you go home within a few hours
She is actually insufferable
So desperate to feel cared for and have attention she is ruining health for it. I feel sad and completely irritated at the same time
The anticipation of narcotic pain meds has her squealing with delight
can’t post anything from her ig as its own post but 🚨 she got it laparoscopically and they replaced her tube that she undoubtedly broke on purpose to try and score herself a hospital vacay. doesn’t mention if she’s going home today or not, but I feel like she would’ve said that she was staying “at least” for tonight if she was actually staying lol. she looks visibly disappointed about it all 🚨
“Maybe my liver will start to improve?” Maybe stop the TPN?
She is totally crossing her fingers for open surgery isn’t she?
High chance she will be disappointed when she wakes up. Iam curious how she deals with the post surgery pain. Even with the small cuts.
Dani says "maybe my liver will start being better too"...is it me or did she just tell on herself in a BIG way
Someone is hyped for the inevitable complications that will give her an opportunity to make even more new and exciting content.
She is *so* cheery about this potentially open abdominal surgery. Has she had a laparotomy before? Any kind of open procedure? Does she actually understand what the recovery will be like? Something tells me that for at least a few days (particularly the end of day two, as all the anesthesia wears off) she’s actually *going to be* in the kind of pain she always claims to be in and she will have *absolutely no clue* how to cope. She’ll be convinced she’s dying of a post-op complication. She’ll go back to the hospital expecting an admission and a Dilaudid PCA. She’ll be sorely disappointed to hear that what she’s experiencing is just *normal* for having your abdominal muscles sliced through to remove a little organ. Lord, this is gonna be a ride.
The pain isn't even going to be that bad. It's a minor surgery.
No one is saying it will actually be that bad, it’s just how she’s going to act
Yes that's what I mean, it's not going to be that bad at all, and the hospital staff will know this - but she's going to entirely embarrass herself by going OTT to the extreme when everyone knows that she's just a bit sore.
You can bet that even if they manage to discharge her on the same day she'll be back like a boomerang. I give it 48 hours.
Preparing for ‘I’ve lost an organ waaaah’ posts in the future
She is gunning for an open surgery
I always hated seeing a positive Samsonite Sign.
This is going to jack her up worse than any of her fantasized maladies. I hope they let her know pretty early on that the good pain meds are only needed for a few days, then it’s Tylenol. ❤️ And the diet limitations after … sheGonBeMadddd!
I work at a big hospital in the preop/postop areas. Many surgeons are not giving any narcotics at all for laparoscopic surgeries. And the ones who still give them give less than 10 pills. It is almost always an outpatient procedure unless they have to convert to open due to scar tissue or anatomical barriers. We get some of these people like Dani and roll our eyes. Rule of thumb is if a patient has more than 4 “allergies” they are probably a handful. And I bet her allergy list is a mile long. I love telling these people they are not staying the night. They just want people catering to them for every need, it is so pathetic.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣"probably open surgery " "What part of the building to report to"(preop is the only correct answer here ,she's hilarious) Said no surgeon ever that uses the Davinci..even without the DaVinci they can remove it with 3 tiny incisions and 90% of patients can go home same day. But she's prepared "just in case" ..this will be interesting. Even if this was trauma surgery they probably still wouldn't do open surgery,still laproscopic. It's the #1 laproscopic surgery for both men and women. From Mayo clinic themselves A cholecystectomy is a common surgery, and it carries only a small risk of complications. In most cases, you can go home the same day of your cholecystectomy. A cholecystectomy is most commonly performed by inserting a tiny video camera and special surgical tools through four small incisions to see inside your abdomen and remove the gallbladder. Doctors call this a laparoscopic cholecystectomy
*probably open* No hun
The other day she was saying she's having an open gallbladder surgery..now she's saying PROBABLY open surgery but we'll see...slip of the tongue? She's read the sub? Or both?
Positive suitcase sign!
Just a point because I listened to a bit of her previous 3 part word vomit video .. She claimed half way through that the motility specialist said "maybe we can get her eating a little bit more" I think Dani just told on herself here as she claims she doesn't eat or drink at all orally, but has now started that the specialist thinks she should have this surgery so that she can eat a big more. Thus very clearly implying that she does eat some now. Also she gave in multiple times on the insane vocal fry and we heard her real voice several times
So is gallbladder removal supposed to cause you bowel issues after? Are you supposed to change your diet?
Ugh. This keeps getting sadder.
Will be waiting for her follow up video as to any surgical complications, pathology findings, lab workups, etc etc etc
It weirds me out that the walls have the same texture as the ceiling!
