  1. I'm actually writing a complaint to the hospital bec,I had to sit up for over 2 hrs pushing my own pc alarm button off as instructed by the nurse cause she had to go find someone who knew how to fix it? forgot to come back regardkess of my 'nurse' call button. Ended up with a hand 4 times its normal size as same nurse kept flushing my fluid line and even though I was telling her it was bloody hurting? She just ignored my pleas.......but,this has nothing to do with the actual surgery just a shit run hospital with shit nursing staff......not all,the African nurses were absolutely fantastic but by then I was done done done! And I am never a bad patient I just expect due care and a wee bit of compassion ????
  2. Hi I'm just day 5 pre-op with the sleeve. I like you bridesmaid,was fast tracked!! Went in 1 day for consult came out same day booked in for op 2 weeks from then! I'm glad it was fast when I think back....the ore-op diet was a killer but I dropped 6kg in less than 2 weeks. Lots of headaches and fatigue but before I knew it was D-DAY....... Went into sunnybank private hospital with Dr daoud at 7am was in operating theatre by 9.45 and out by 11am.....everything went well. I went into ICU for 1 night then into surgical ward for the 2nd night.......neither was very comfortable I won't lie! ICU cared a lot more about the individual but I was left very very unimpressed with the surgical wards nursing of me,but that's another story.Home was where my real healing has started and continues........I'm coping really well with fluids....a little struggle swallowing just enough not to hurt lol....my advice on week 1?? Don't rush and just 'sip sip sip'
