timely

This may sound like a silly question, my surgery is 4/29 (this Wednesday) and somehow I am just now thinking about pain in my actual stomach where the sleeve is made. Did anyone have pain in that area, other than the suture sites and gas pain? Thanks in advance...just wondering if it feels like they have just cut something off....probably thinking too much.

I was out 5 work days. I had my surgery on a Wednesday. Discharged from the hospital on Thursday. I went back to work the following Wednesday. I honestly think getting up and moving around as soon as I could can AND as often as I could greatly improved my recovery time.

Thank you for posting this, because I have been worried I am not taking off enough time. I am a school teacher and my surgery is scheduled for 4/29 a Wednesday, and I'm hoping to go back on MOnday....If I take it easy do you think this is realistic? Thanks for you opinion in advance =)

I'm scheduled for April 29th! Getting excited and nervous.

tbkent I am scheduled for the 29th too. Just found this forum and I'm excited as well. Good Luck to you!!!!
