Death is always a possibility, with all surgeries. Death (sooner) is always a possibility, without getting this surgery Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Oh and on top of it, there were two lights and this idiot kept turning on mine Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It was ridiculous. I was so friggin angry Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well I left the hospital 28 hours after surgery. I was placed in a room with a 93 year old man, who was very ill. He was placed in there at 1015 pm and they made a ton of noise while fighting with him. For the next 7 hours, he continued to set off his breathing machine and kept me up. I did not sleep for even 5 minutes. The home health aid that was with him all night kept yelling at him and taking phone calls and speaking on her cell phone. The 2nd home health aid took over at 7 am and kept up with the same crap. Finally I told the nurse I was checking myself out. So I left. I wasn't getting any benefit being there anyway, since I wasn't allowed to walk, had to pee in a bed pan, and they were only giving me Tylenol. Oh then he crapped in his diaper and they changed it in the room and stunk the whole place out and I was gagging, and almost throwing up. Terrible experience. *side note: doctor was ok with discharging me since I peed, burped, flatulated, passed the leak test, and tolerated jello* So Monday surgery, Tuesday miserable Wednesday extra miserable Today, happy, no gas pains, and waking 30 minutes a few times a day. Only pain is in my lower left quadron, presumably where they took the stomach piece out. Oxys barely do anything for it. Whatever. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The gas pains went away (sleeves 6/20) but I still have site pain on one of the incisions- lower left Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Got sleeved Monday Every sip of Water makes me feel like I have to burp but nothing really comes out Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Walking is doing nothing (or so it seems). Is it slow walking, faster walking, are these gradual small fake burps actually productive? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Day #1 was as expected. Day #2 I am experiencing some awful gas pains Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How do I get the CO2 out of me??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Good luck. I'm heading there now Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Alright, you two----if you weren't worried, or in an odd mood, you two would be "weirdos".. Really, WLS journeys are long and life changing. BUT you both have done the hardest part---you've recognized your disease and are ready to "face the demon". Tomorrow you will start the most challenging, but also the most joyful, rewarding journey of your lives. Hang on and enjoy the ride! There will be "bumps" in you path. That is what we are here for--for "bump removal". Whatever problem you may face, I am confident that there will be someone here who has faced the same "bump in the road" and can help you or at least talk you through it. Support is SOOOOO important. That you will ALWAYS have here on BP. Meet you on the ,"Losers' Bench". You will like it there. You can rest there--for a moment. Post and let us know how you are doing post op. We are absolutely nosy, but we also care. Try and get a good night's sleep. Tomorrow your journey begin!!! Positive people make me sick!!! The worst 2 weeks of my life ...

Yeah I go tomorrow too and I'm in an odd mood Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Tomorrow is my day too... I was told to bring ID, insurance card, cpap machine if I use one. I'm also bringing a phone charger, an extension cord, toothbrush and toothpaste and a baseball cap. Also wearing loose fitting clothes that will make its way back on me when I leave, and a fresh pair of underwear. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Once i decided to get surgery I have only purchased one pair of $15 jeans - and that's because the one pair I had left ripped and I could no longer wear them. I guess I'll look like crap for the next year and eventually buy a new wardrobe
