@@JessUK

hey girlfriend

according to my calculations ;) you are officially in sleeveland :)

take it slow

IF you have ANY pain, don't be shy about asking for meds

as soon as you can - get up and SLOWLY start walking around

this will help get rid of the gas

sip sip sip slowly - get as much water/liquids as you can

i see in your future - life getting better and better

who deserves it more :)

good luck

speedy recovery

@@SparkleCat

hey bud - i didn't forget about you :)

you do all the above i said

you and @@JessUK can both smile, give a sigh of relief

and compare notes :)

take care :)

Hi,

Thank you for all the good wishes. My surgery went well with no complications. I had a lap band removed 8 months ago so there was a risk that the scarring on my stomach may get in the way but my surgeon said the scarring was minimal so he was able to do a normal shape sleeve.

I have all IV drips removed and am sipping Water and cups of tea. They even tried me with some consume but I could only manage a few spoonfuls.

One more night in hospital then home tomorrow.

Jess

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
