Any January Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I'm back and i'm sleeved!! thanks to all who said a prayer for me, it must have helped, things went really well. I had some pain the first two days but that was kept under control with meds, by the third day i felt great. "They kept me in two days longer because my drain was producing too much and the xrays they did were inconclusive but i know everything was fine.

How many of us have been sleeved this month so far? How is everyone doing?

I'm so excited to start my new life and re-claim my health!

Well, 4 days post sleeve and all is well, spent extra day in Hospital because of snow conditions in NJ. I had a Hiatial Hernia repaired at the same time. No pain from surgery, just some really bad gas pains from anastesia. Not taking any pain meds, just my regular medication. Surviving the liquid diet so far, havnt weighed my self will wait till Dr visit next week.. Please keep in touch and good luck, so far I am glad I did this.

Good for you, glad to hear that at 4 days out you are happy and doing well. I am in NY so I know all about the snow right now. How many days did you spend in hospital in all?

Take care and keep us updated!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
