  1. I was sleeved on 12/19. The surgeon nicked a vein near my spleen. I lost one liter of blood. I had a fever, a cath and a drain. The drain is still in and is causing me major discomfort. I hope I get to go home today[emoji120][emoji120][emoji120]. I am having a few gas pains. I also have pain in my left shoulder.
  2. Nope, I'm getting sleeved right outside of Philadelphia, PA
