Does it hurt to get the drain out?

How long does the drain stay in? Is that normal?

Surgery is scheduled for Jan 28th. I start my clear liquid diet on the 18th. Super excited/nervous/anxious. Its encouraging to read the other posts of everyone who's getting sleeved or already done it. :-) keep up with the updates. :-)

Jenniebell00 how do you feel? :-) I'm anxious to get mine over and done with. :-)

I'm scheduled for January 28th. Excited and nervous :-)

My surgery is scheduled for January 28th. I'm super excited to have it. I have been working towards this since October. I've had surgeries before. I had a meniscus repair on my knee and I've had my gallbladder out. I dont know why I'm feeling anxious. I read on here about a lady who had the gastric sleeve done (that's what I'm having done) and she got a leak and ended up being put into a coma and now I'm nervous lol. I guess I just keep thinking of the negative what ifs instead of the positive as much. Someone slap me and tell me to stop worrying lol.

Thank you all for the support and encouragement. I do greatly appreciate it. I guess I'm getting to that OMG ITS REALLY HAPPENING phase lol. I'm so glad my friend got me connected to this.

That's inspiring! My surgery date is January 28th. I'm so ready for this!
