    Nothing Bothers Me? Really?

    Caffeine, rice, chicken turkey, basically my sleeve can handle anything in small well chewed portions! Good, and not so good. Lost 20 in 30 days, on my way to feeling better and better every day!!

    Vomiting Blood

    when I was sleeved on a Wednesday I vomited "old" blood, painful and scary and tasted horrid from Wednesday to Friday. Then once I got home took it slow, drank less sips, got on my acid reducer, took only warm drinks it stopped, now I'm 13 days out and haven't even been nauseous.

    Any Bay Area California Sleevers?

    My appt with dr le included strict instructions to lose 11 pounds in 4 to 6 weeks, i did it in 3, so he scheduled my preop 6/19 and my surgery 6/28. I stayed overnight and have been recouping easily at home. Most of the day id never know i had surgery, but then i eat, and i quickly realize i was sleeved. My hospital stay was ok. The nurses tried hard, but they were busy! The morphine and i are enemies,and the liquid tylenol with codeine made me nauseous. Ask for something else like liquid vicodin! When i threw up it scared me [ im a wuss when i throw up] Dr le is amazing with the scalpel and stitching. I have no scarring,no drains, no pain. At 13 days, they are essentially gone. Good luck, you wont need it.
  7. Three mornings in a row, exactly @540 am i wake up with a burning, almost hangover, rot gut, morning sickness feeling. No real regurge, no acid refux, just achy, burning, queasy in breat bone. I get up, sip on warm decaf coffee with half and half, take my morning rx for acid and sit up. Takes two hours to relieve. Is it hunger, from laying in bed...common?

    Low Bp And Pulse - Virtually Dead?

    Im now 7 days post op, lower bp and pulse since leaving the operating room. While they are not worried, i read online about damage to the vagus nerve can occur with stomach surgery. Hmmm
