Who Was Your Gastric Sleeve Surgeon
Countrygrrl replied to boredswfl's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
My dr was dr Umbach from blossom bariatrics in Las Vegas Nv. I was self pay and it was just under 10,000. I was out of the center same day as surgery. By the next morning I was up and walked five miles ( no joke) he gives you his personal cell phone # in case it's after hrs and you need him. And his staff were great. I skype with my nutritionist and they kept me with the same team from pre op to walking out the door. Oh and as my surgery was 12/31 my nurse was going to drive me safely back to my hotel so I didn't get rushed by wasted celebrating crowds. I had to talk her and the dr out of it. LOVE blossom bariatrics oh and I love my cough buddy -

I feel great ! Day one post op!
Countrygrrl posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I read so many scary stories on here about. But I stoped pain pills around 10 pm last night. And I really wanna go do something. A little gas pain but the gas x strips help. At the start I thought I was going to puke but it was just gas. I also want to add the entire staff was beyond my expectation at dr Umbach at blossom bariatrics. ???? -

I have perhaps been able to drink about 3 oz since post op today. That's 7 hrs. I constantly feel on the edge of looking it. I'm terrified of puking. But don't know what to do help -

Countrygrrl replied to Linkin's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was self pay and took a trip to Las Vegas. 9,400 with dr Umbach. I have to say great experience from start to finish. Surgery was yesterday and I'm off pain pills and hopping around the hotel room. The whole staff at blossom bariatrics was wonderful! -

Checking in at blossom for my surgery
Countrygrrl posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well here we go. I got so nervous that I went on a pre surgery shopping spree at Macy's lmao!! Couldn't sleep last night and I keep thinking I just dropped 400 on cloth that I won't be wearing in a few months. I'm stressing on small stuff like my pedicure or lack of it and how dry my skin feels w/o lotion and potions and lord above the lack of deodorant. So I guess I'm a little scared and deflecting. Time to go to what really works for me to release fear Prayer and meditation -
