  3. I was also sleeved on Aug 1st, I still feel very sore in my belly especially the big insinsion. I'm still taking the pain medication because it helps, but the pain is still there. I hope we start to feel normal soon.
  4. I was sleeved Aug 1st, from my bag all I used was my toothbrush toothpaste hairbrush baby wipes chapstick hand lotion charger and a dress to come home in. Didn't use slippers book 2 sets of extra clothes make up.
  5. It really depends where you are located? But you can present any other issues that are making you choose the sleeve. Bad knees, high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep apnea. Look at your weight history with kaiser, maybe that will help. Things like that. Good luck to you.
  6. Good luck everything will be fine.
  7. You can do it. I'll be thinking about you. Good bless.
