Day 2 with my sleeve

All has gone as expected and I am about to be discharged from the hospital. Thankfully I have had little nausea. I am very sore and weak. The gas pain hasn't been too bad. I have only had ice chips, water and jello; they went down easily. I have the most trouble with the liquid lortab. It burns as it goes down, but I do need it. The gas meds help too. I will have to travel home, a four hour drive, tomorrow. Ive got to stop and walk every hour. My doctor told me to sip water on the trip and start Isopure at home since it may make me nauseated. A funny thing happened on the way to surgery. They asked my consent for several other doctors from around the country to observe. I was their VSG lesson. LOL

LOL ask for payment as you donated your stomach to science. Good luck and we hope to see you posting often!

I was thinking the same thing....you should get a discount......perhaps royalties like the movie stars get. It so encouraging that the Firecrackers are doing so well. I hope we can all finish this monthe with a big bang.

I hope your recovery stays smooth and slimming :rolleyes:

Definitely should have a discounted or free surgery for them to watch! SERIOUSLY!!! I'm glad you are doing mostly well and hope the trip home is or was easy on you. Good luck...can't wait to watch your progress! ((hugs))
