How are you doing ?I was sleeved Oct 5th!Hello everyone !!! I was sleeved OCT. 5th & I would love to get to know people in the area! did this Chicago meet up ever happen?I am so glad I have found people near Chicago! I got sleeved OCT. 5th by Dr. rantis @ st. alexius !!!I love DR. Rantis, he did my surgery Oct. 5th.Mine was at St. Alexius, Hoffman Estates, ILAfter surgery I had alot of nausea & gas! It was horrible, as they wheeled me to the upper GI test I was throwing up all the way! Once they gave me that nasty contrast to drink I dont even know how I was able to keep it down during the test!Hi Lorraine! My best advise is to keep your self busy & not over think things. I was sleeved 10/5/12 ... although i did educate myself on the surgery & what I had coming, I didnt allow my self to over do it. Why? because I know myself & I tend to over react and get very paranoid. You have to have alot of mental control & always keep in mind why you have chose to do the surgery. I wish you the best of luck & try to keep your mind busy on other things!No that is the normal surgery time. I was sleeved 10/5/12 ... I was out in 3hrs, & was allowed liquids the following morning after the upper GI test. Like Coco said things will only get better. In one month I have lost 65 lbs & I am also off of insulin & my diabetes meds were also lowered! Hang in there & good luck!Hello everyone! My name is Christina & i had my sleeve Oct. 5th 2012 ....... This has been a life changing decision & i dont regret it one bit! I have lost a total of 63lbs since the begining of my pre-op liquid diet. I hope to make new friends & gain knowledge from this site!
