My Experience After Surgery

I got my sleeve done yesterday Dallas.

Painful. Morphine did not work for me. They ordered something stronger. That did not work. They gave me a pill that did not work. I woke up crying in pain. The doctor ordered another pain medication. That worked. Im still in the hospital. Everything is ok now.

Thank for all the prayers and kind words.

It was a lady in recovery with me. I felt so sorry for her. She had the band 2 sleeve. She could not stop throwing up. She was throwing up blood. I hope she is ok.

Ain't no stoppin us now,were on the move !!!!!!<br />Sincerely<br /> Zeta

I'm glad you are feeling better. Sorry you had so much pain. Hang in there, it does get better. I'm 3 days post op and feeling a little sore but better.

I'm glad that found a pain medication that would work for you! Frankly, I would rather deal with pain than deal nausea - feel so bad for that women that was in recovery with you. Take your meds, take your time, and get lots of rest!

I had to stay another night. I was in so much last, I was crying so loud the nurse next door came to check on me. She called the front again to make sure my nurse was coming. It kind of hurts when I drink.

Again thanks

I have never in life experience that much pain in my life. The nurses could not believe morphine did not work.

I felt bad for her too. I pray she is better.

thanks
