Has anyone heard from Mountain_lover? She had her surgery the day after mine, but I've not seen her on line yet.

No, I've been looking for her posts. I'm really worried about ML. I hope and pray everything is ok.

Hello fellow sleevers, jsm, and judyjudyjudy,

I just came home from the hospital yesterday. I DID IT!! I had the sleeve done on Wednesday morning and I could have went home on Thursday, but I felt like one more day would help for me to see if I was going to be able to walk ok and drink enough fluids. I have not had any incision pain. The only pain I have had is from the gas pains, which they

say can be caused from the anesthisea (?ms) I have had alot of nausa, I have been taking some meds for it. i am so happy that this part is over and I am now looking forward to having some of the soft food, which will be around Dec.16 or so. I went to Wal-Mart and walked around for a little while yesterday after getting out of the hospital. Today I went to the Flea Market here in Somerset KY. so I could get some walking in and see some of my friends. They were so surprised to see me up and walking this soon after surgery. I will post more when I feel better. Thanks for you thoughts, prayers and your concern? I appreciate them very much!!

Thank you for all your concern and comments. I am back and it feels so good. I have not been on for awhile because I have been so sick from the nausea. I have not had any vomiting, for which I am very grateful.

Today is the best I have felt since surgery. I have not had as much nausea today. I went to the Y and exercised on the stationary bike which is ok at this time. Walking and stationary bike is all. Once my incision heals up I can go back to my swimming classes. I will just have to ask the doctor how much of the exercises can I do. I may have to take it easy at first, but just being in the pool will help, I am sure. I am so grateful for you all on this forum. I hate to think about my journey without you all here for support. Have a good day!!
