  1.    Alex Brecher reacted to a post in a topic: Any Sleevers from Dubai ?
  2. I'm one month out and recently started eating solids. I noticed though that once I feel full, which is usually after exactly three tiny spoons, I get a severe headache and my heart keeps pacing. Anyone experienced the same thing?
  3. I'm almost two weeks out and for the last 4 days I've been experiencing mild pain in my left abdomen. This morning I just noticed that I have kind of been constipated - could this be the reason? Should I worry about the possibility of having leakage? Apologies if there's already an existing post on this. Lina

  5. Tell me more. How long ago was your surgery done?
  6. I got it April 2. I've been on a liquid diet since then and I have about a week and a half to go until I move to soft foods. Who was your doctor?
  7. Hi all, I'm from the Middle East - currently living in Dubai!
  8. Did it go away eventually?
  9. Forgot to add that they also had my gallbladder taken out during the surgery.
  10. I was just sleeved Tuesday last week and noticed the other day that both my outer thighs are numb. There's no pain or anything but just a tingly feeling. Called the doc and he said it had nothing to do with the surgery and it's probably caused by the way I was positioned on the table. I'm still kind of worried though. Any thoughts/previous experience on this? Apologies if there's already an existing thread in this.
  11. Thanks a lot for the message. It's getting really tiring sleeping on my back but I also feel that I'm being paranoid about lots of things. For example, I've been coughing a lot and im trying to get myself to stop coz I'm too scared it would do something to my sleeve. I think if I keep calling my doc about every single issue I'm worried about he'll hate me very soon.
  12. Just got sleeved three days ago and had my gallbladder removed during the same surgery. So tired of sleeping on my back. Would it do any harm if I slept on my side?
  13. I'm three days post op and it's been very very difficult for me to drink anything at all. For the last 2 days I was only able to drink a 250ml cup of water in total. This morning I was able to finish an entire juice box in about an hour. Is this too much? Could my stomach start leaking?

  15. Wow - I would give anything really to even lose 20 pounds!! I'm not setting my standards low but seeing a difference in my clothes or scale would make me the happiest person ever. It's been ages since I felt comfortable in my own skin. Actually, I don't even remember if I ever felt that. I am ready for the surgery - I know I'm doing the right thing for myself and I know it will probably be the best thing I ever do for ME! I wish I can just relax a little and only focus on the positive that I do acknowledge deep down inside. You really are an inspiration too and thank you so much for the message
