  1. Thanks everyone! I know, you're all right, I need to do these. I really don't know why I'm dreaming about them, I have no problems at all with needles if a nurse or doctor is giving them. I have emailed my surgeon just to check because I am very mobile and my bmi is lower than 50, but until o hear back I guess I'll have to grit my teeth and....????
  2. I had my sleeve surgery 4 days ago. I was fine taking the daily Fragmin anti-DVT jabs in hospital, but now I'm home I'm really struggling with the idea of doing them myself, or even letting my husband do it. I have tried to find out what the risks of not taking the Fragmin are, but can't find any stats. Did anyone skip their jabs?
