Hey July Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

Hi friends,

I was sleeved on Tuesday and I'm still in the hospital. The surgeon said everything went really well but ive had a few issues arise. I'll be here definitely tomorrow and possibly Saturday as well. I've had a few set backs but getting better everyday. On weds my bp was super low and I was completely unable to get up. Today was better and I've walked the halls a couple of times so far. I've been getting a phosphorus supplement in my IV because that was low and my hemoglobin is low as well. They did a third blood draw just a little bit ago because if it doesn't go up by tonight, I'll need a transfusion. I'm pretty surprised that I'm having all of these issues come up but I'm hoping they are short term and I'll definitely not need a transfusion. Hope everyone who has gone in already is recovering nicely and those who are on deck are feeling confident and strong.

Oh awesome!! I know, I can't find anyone ( in real life) that has been sleeved by him either! Do you live around there? I live in the Humble/Kingwood area.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
