3 weeks post op-I've actually developed terrible acne behind my ears (of all places). I am hoping I am just coming down from all of the medicines that were pumped in me. I have also been having some intense HOT FLASHES!!

I was sleeved Monday 11/26 .....I'm home now still with some pain n so nausea n vomiting.....I've been getting up to walk often ....whenever I can keep my eyes open....I just wanna wish everybody good luck n we can do this

Hope you begin to feel better soon. I was sleeved on 11/19 (revision) and I am getting fluids down fine. Hang in there!

If you do not have one I highly suggest a body pillow. I am a side sleeper and didnt sleep well in the hospital because I couldnt sleep on my side. but the body pillow helps' date=' you can put it under your stomach and put your legs around it to take off the pressure from being on your side, its a wonderful thing ! .

Hope your feeling better soon !.[/quote']

Thanks MindyNTexas I did just what you advised and was able to sleep like a baby last night!

I just posted my post op "report" i was in the hospital for 5 days post op due to not being able to keep anything down ' date=' since I have been home for less than 3 days I have thrown up twice, Both times i figure out had dairy in it , so I guess I cant tolerate that , one being a Protein Shake . take it slow you will get out .. i know it seems like forever.[/quote']

I've made it home finally and seem to be doing fine. I am getting all of my fluids down too. The only thing is I can't sleep in my bed yet. I am sleeping in the recliner because it's comfy. Sure do miss my bed..lol. Thanks for the well wishes!!

I had revision surgery Monday the 19th and am still in the hospital. Some nausea and fever so the doctor doesn't feel comfortable sending me home just yet. I'm not tolerating the Protein Drinks only Water and Crystal light. I am feeling better as I type this and am praying that I can go home tomorrow. Peace and blessings...

Surgery in the AM! I am sooo ready! Peace and blessings to everyone and I will definitely give a progress report when I am able!

Tomorrow morning will begin the journey for me!! I will have my revision in the morning! Wish me blessings!

YOU GO GIRL!!!!

Just wondering of the planned/anticipated novembers?[/quote']

Thanks lady!!

Dr Kuwada is doing my surgery as well. I am a little worried because my insurance was approved last week and he doesn't have any dates for surgery available on his calendar. Fingers crossed

I am proud to announce that Dr Kuwada found room for me!!! I am scheduled for Nov. 19th! liquid diet starts Monday! Yaaaayyyyy!!!!

I was approved TODAY for the panni part of my tumny tuck! I went to my pcp 1 time for "rashes" that i never really had. My ps sent in the pics they took of me and the office report from my pcp and i was approved super fast. Fep Blue is really the best! GOOD LUCK!!!

OMG I'm so happy for you!!! Keep us posted!

I actually had my band done in Mexico in 2008. I decided to have the revision from band to sleeve early this year. I completed the 6 month requirement that UHC had and just got approved for the revision on last week. Took 2 days!! Don't give up!!

I try crossing but I'm sure I look like a total idiot trying to do it! Can't wait!

Approved by UHC in 2 days and my letter was received on the 5th day after submission.

Sounds like your story is much like most of us. Good luck with this new journey and keep us all posted on your progress!

I am excited to share that I received my approval for revision surgery from UHC in less than a week. I completed the 6 month diet requirement along with many other pokes and probes. I will keep you all posted on my surgery date and subsequent progress. Stay encouraged!!
