Thanks for the input. I have been researching the surgery for almost a year. I've talked to a couple of Universities who do research and they said since I am 100 pounds over weight, I would likely lose 65 pounds and probably only 50 long term. Those surgeons and my surgeon haven't done anyone under my circumstances and didn't know if my weight loss would be different. One of them suggested this forum to see if others in the same circumstances could tell me about their weight loss.

Your entries have certainly scared me away from the surgery. Thanks for the honesty

You will be fine! I went through menopause at 41 and didn't have any of those issues, except hot flashes, until late 50s. Once you are done with the hot flashes, it is so nice to not have the hassles of periods and mood swings!

It's from the intubation for anesthesia. Ask your doctor for Flonase (or any brand)

Good luck! I'm supposed to get sleeved about the same time as you. Can't figure out how to add you to my friends list. If you know how, add me to yours.
You are probably wise to do the liquids. My surgeon is not very strict either. He did say it will make things easier because rapid weight gain comes from your stomach and makes visibility better. So I'm with you, going to do it. After reading all these horror stories, I figure do everything possible.
It's great that you are excited. After joining this site and reading all the things that went wrong, I have been thinking about canceling surgery. One lady sent me a great support letter so I printed it off and look at it when I start to freak out.
Like you I'm not telling anyone about the surgery.
