Made It Through Gastric Sleeve Surgery! Can Only Go Down From Here

I was sleeved on Monday, Dec 5 at Hospital Mi Doctor by Dr. Garcia and his fabulous team. Surgery went well and I am feeling great. My only issue was the darn drain, it gave me some pain but once it came out Everything changed.

I have so far not had any problems drinking and have been doing that constantly, water, gaterade, broth, juice. Just have to remember to do it slowly.

My husband thought our Pekingese dog was a noisy sleeper wait till he hears this little sleeve...lol.

I am looking forward to a little shopping tomorrow and then fly home on Friday.

    Girl, so happy for you! I was also sleeved on Monday at Westchester Medical Center in NY. Does the incision they removed your stomach through bother you at all? I'm good except for that incision.

Jasleeve, I'd go with the other hospital if you can. The doctors at WMC were awesome, but the nursing staff left something to be desired. Good luck to you. I've been following you on youtube. I'm MadamDanyell on there.

i absolutely love my dr and his staff. i live closer to lawrence & my grandma died in westchester medical, i could never. :(
