    delbook got a reaction from TxStar09 in April 2019 Surgeries!   
    Just had my sleeve done Wednesday (4/10) at 10:30am. I’ve had little pain at the site, but I’ve felt the gas pain in my chest and back. Dinner was a few sips of unjury chicken soup (it’s a delicious broth) and a few sips of crystal light. Ice has been my friend! It’s great because it melting slowly in my mouth gets it to go slowly down.

    Getting the chewable vitamins and liquid meds down is not fun. I get a stab of pain with those things.

    Things I’m using at hospital:
    - PJs and my own shirt
    - my own underwear and pads. Yes, I started my period. I can’t bend enough with the soreness to use tampons.
    - biotene
    - lotion
    - chapstick
    - phone
    - headphones
    - external battery to charge phone and short cable (it can sit right be me on my table within my reach.

    So far I have not read using my iPad, but likely will a lot later today. I brought my laptop but asked my husband to take it home yesterday because I definitely don’t need it. I also haven’t used the robe I brought because I’m in PJs and don’t need it. I also haven’t worn the flip flops I brought. I just walk the hallway with the hospital slippers.

    I think I’m ready!
    I have to be at the hospital tomorrow morning at 7:30 and my surgery is at 9:30.
    Hopefully I didn’t forget to do anything.
