January 8, 201214 yr Hi Fellow January folks.... there are three of us (that I'm aware of) heading in for sleeves tomorrow. Wish us luck! Next post sleeved! Oh - took a couple pre-surgery photos... gaakkkk!! It's amazing how long I've gone just not looking at myself.
January 10, 201214 yr Author so far the only discomfort I have is the nausea (knock on wood) and the heprin shots are no fun. they brought me chicken broth, diluted apple juice, jello and a Popsicle for dinner. broth good, apple juice ok and jello and grape Popsicle were horrible - immediate nausea, close to barfing. Just brushed teeth and that has me a little queasy. Still have the catheter. I think they want to measure how much. sorry if tmi!
January 14, 201214 yr I'm sleeved!! Easy and pretty painless! No pain meds or anything like that. Hopefully this continues. Tomorrow I start clears if I pass my leak test.
January 14, 201214 yr Author Congrats Pink_140! My pain has been pretty minimal too. The nausea the first 18 hours was no fun but I've been home since Tuesday afternoon and feel great. I've walked quite a bit each day (shopping walking and walking to get my son from daycare) and my last pain pill was Wednesday night to get myself back to sleep. I feel great!
January 14, 201214 yr I cannot wait to join you'll, the 23rd can't get here quick enough...I hope my recovery is equally as painless as some of yours...
