SaraSleeves

I chose the sleeve because it seemed to be safer/ less severe on your body with a shorter recovery and very effective. I did not even have to stay overnight in the hospital and have done great. I am 4 months out and have lost 60 pounds. I don't have any problems digesting anything (not even raw veggies) and my Dr personally favored the sleeve for me. Good luck. I would never turn back.

This is scary as someone just operated on. I really want to do it but fear is so real. I hope I can. It's quite scary! I hope I have the tenacity you have @"Elode". Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had mine on the 9th and am doing well. Excited to be sleeved. Anticipating all of the changes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had surgery November 9th. I had bad gas pain but no nausea. I'm one week PO tomorrow and am taking the hubby in to have his sleeve with Brian Long tomorrow at 11:30. So far, so good. I'm glad I did this! Wishing the scale would move faster but remaining patient. I've definitely gotten in very few calories and just been drinking ! How is everyone ?

Yeah my practitioner finished my sentence when I called. She said it happens in laparoscopic procedures sometimes and may take awhile but will eventually go away. Femoral nerve damage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

NP said the same thing. You're a smart cookie. Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow. Thank you! That sounds exactly right based on what I just read about it. I'm glad it's no biggie! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome!! Best of luck. I think you'll be fine with your throat. Hope it goes away soon. Are you at surgicare Richardson? Happy Sleeve Day!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow. It is a little scary and I wonder why it happens ? I'll let you know if I find out anything further. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did anyone experience their thigh going numb after surgery? I am 3 days post op VSG and nerve damage is what it seems like. It's completely numb in my right outer thigh. No symptoms for a clot but it's definitely numb and staying that way for a little while. Beyond just my thigh "falling asleep." I plan on calling the surgeon's office in the morning but curious if any of you experienced this? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Walking and putting your arms up on the wall while someone beats on your back. That helped me the most to get relief. ( Was recommended by nurse). Congrats tbmichals and good luck. Dr. long is great. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That would be cool. I work in Richardson at the new State Farm City Line building. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
