Congratulations! I'm praying everything goes well and you have a speedy recovery

Good luck tomorrow!!!!

Good luck!! All will be ok!

good luck my surgery is also tom.

Thank you for all the love & support, fellow sleevers!

I am currently 1 day post op ... !

My pain yesterday after surgery (which for me was a 1 hour surgery) was maybe an "8" out of "10" right after waking up.

They gave me some morphine & some zofran - and it wasn't too shabby.

The night time was the worst so far. All the anesthesia had officially worn off, cause more pain than what the morphine and things could offer. However, it wasn't too terrible, maybe back up to a "7" for pain.

I completed my swallow test approx 3 hours ago (NO LEAKS! yay) - so I am waiting for the surgeon to A-OK me for some Water & Jello.

My pain right now - a 4 on a scale of 1-10. Not too bad - & I honestly have a VERY LOW pain tolerance.

The scariest part left (for me, personally) is the removal of this drain!!! =/ & the removal of the IVs of course - icky!

I'd be more than happy to answer any & all questions.

Sorry for any typos - I'm drifting in & out of sleep - ha

YAY !!! CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!! I am so excited for you !!!!

so glad to hear you are doing well! keep us posted!
