Hello, My surgery was on 10/10...I have had a lot of pain and still do just not as bad. More so than the other guy who had it on same day as me. But I had a bad cough and I think that was why I was having trouble healing. However, things seemed to be going ok then I noticed yesterday I was dizzy and had blurred vision..I am having trouble even typing this. With that then the nausea started too. I switched back to liquid only but all I wanna do is sleep. I called my nurse and she said this was normal. Has anyone else experienced this? On the brighter side, I dropped all my Water weight and an additional 8 pounds since being released from hospital Grand total lost since start of this was 28 pounds ( I didn't add in the water weight)

My surgery was also on 10/10, I didn't do too well. I had a lot of pain. But I noticed day by day its gets a little better. I have the gurgling and start to feel fine also when move around also then I get dizzy and exhausted. I felt like an idiot cuz this guy had same procedure same day and he was doing great. Hopefully it gets better!

Thank you everyone so much. I really do feel better about it.

Hello, I am a 37 year old mother of a 19 year old in a very long term relationship with a skinny man..LOL! I cannot believe it is less then two weeks away, it's funny how all of the sudden everyone is telling me horror stories about the pain I will suffer. And the bad side of the sleeve such as the slow weight loss and the horrible gas. So, as you probably can imagine I am a nervous wreck! I guess I turned here to see if someone can make me feel better about my decision. My doctor requires a 800 calorie diet starting 2 weeks prior, it has been torture but as least not as bad as all liquid. I live with my boyfriend who is not spportive of my decision at all. He is 6'2 and never gains weight yet eats like an absolute pig. When we met I was 127, now I am 280, hard to believe I ever got this big, I think I gained all the weight from what he ate.. LOL... the picture is from 10 years ago ...he says I don't need the surgery and that he loves me how I am but I think he fears me leaving him or something really. My dad actually talked me into the surgery, now he is trying to talk me out it. Needless to say I am a mess. Anyone go through something similar?
