Having Trouble Being Positive
You can file a formal complaint about the care of service. It's a big deal if you do. Keep in mind, my surgeon (top in ga) had me home within 4 hours and does for all his patients. Butttt he is equipped for this surgery. The support staff was hands down amazing. I saw every surgeon 2 times prior to surgery with a dedicated nurse who called every 3 hours afterwards. I called the on call physician- and he called back within 5 minutes. The worst feeling is trusting a surgeon who doesn't have the time to treat you like a human. Don't battle your own doc, find one that cares about you not your file. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Did anyone else have an easy recovery? I'm getting downright paranoid....
I called and asked the doc on day 4 if I should be worried. I went to the mall on day 3. I read all the worst cases for over a year, didn't realize how easy it might be. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

September Sleevers!
Girl I think we all have the same fears. I had a low BMI sand did the sleeve to prevent the yoyoing. I have the same fear that it won't work on me either. I actually almost convinced myself I would be the one this wouldn't work for. LOL it's working and you will see that you won't be hungry all the time. Hang In there- Girl my family took me to the Cheesecake Factory for lunch the day after I got sleeved. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

September Sleevers!
Sleeves 9/2 no issues really. Went home an hour after I woke up. Slept that day and the next. Walked around the mall on the 3rd and have been fine, no complaints except the pooping situation. My doc only had us on liquids for the first week. I haven't lost any weight from day 9 till day 20, so I guess a stall. People keep saying it's normal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Help... I really need to poop
I drink about 80 ounces a day, always drinking water, and I am eating. I thought it was because of the food that was doing this. I take so much calcium and just started taking thyroid medicine- I am sure my body wants to bitch slap me and hug me at the same time- I personally would like it to figure it out because I have now bought the left wing of the dog store for pooping problems. The cashier might even be embarrassed for me. I haven't had any issues at all besides this. You would think the doc didn't even do anything to me, it's bazaar. Thanks for the hell though!
