Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
In a gastric sleeve surgery or vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), the surgeon removes most of your stomach and forms the rest into a tube-shaped sleeve from your throat to your small intestine. These forums are for sleevers, potential sleevers and revisional sleevers! Talk about the VSG diet, nutritional supplements, weight loss and sleeve complications.

One week post surgery. Was in the hospital for two days - no visitors of course- and was discharged on Wednesday. While in the hospital, I slept the first day with regular vital checks and dr visits. I had a cpap machine issued to me the Thursday before Monday surgery and it was awful. I discovered that I hate anything on my face and my unit was the least invasive. I plan on returning the machine this Wednesday as it’s next to my Bariatric dr office. Feeling good and looking forward to moving to the next food stage. Still have pain when I cough or sneeze - esp with one of the incisions. So glad to have finally gotten the surgery since all has been on hold.· 0 replies

Does anybody have any good book recommendations to read pre-op? I’m like 6 months away, but I want to be as prepared as I possibly can for what’s ahead, and how to make the most of this new tool that the doctor will be giving me.· 0 replies

"Leisure time" is getting more and more scarce lately as it seems somehow. Too often too tired from being on-call and I definitely need to start studying for my second board certification and there will be some rough times ahead I guess.· 0 replies
Going to bed soon. The work day after a 24 h shift always feels awful (like jet lag) so I better get to sleep soon to get my zzZZZzz in because I'm being on-call again tomorrow evening/night. Who else hates vacation time when half the department seems to be on holiday?
I have a follow-up appointment on Friday so I took Friday off. Also not working on the weekend and being on late shift next Monday. That means three days in a row without an alarm clock, lol.

Hey there remember what your doing this for. You will eventually be able to drink caffeine again and it will be tastier than ever when you do. It's worth the wait!

Tips for when you are cold: house cleaning! I get cold no matter what time of the year when Ive been sitting in the soffa and today, I had a bit of an epiphany. If Im so cold, why dont I just get up and move around to fix it and clean the house at the same time. ...and it seems to work. I'll have to see if it's something I can do more long term, but just today it also seemed to alleviate my anxiety as well. You all prolly know this trick but my thick head didnt. Here's to a clean house and warmer feet!· 1 reply
