My appointment is 7:30 tomorrow morning!

I'm very excited...not a bit nervous, yet. I've gotten my house all cleaned up, my family all set for the week, etc. Now I just have to pack my bag and relax!

I'm somewhat new to this site but just wanted to thank everybody for sharing everything. I think reading all this has really kept me from getting nervous.

Catch you all on the flip side

On my way to the hospital!!! Thanks for all ur support!!! I will update you guys when I can!

Congratulations! I too am being sleeved tomorrow so I feel your excitement!!! Good luck to you.

Good luck! I hope all well. My surgery is Thursday in Dallas.

Well I am currently 10 hours post op. woke up feeling rather groggy but no bad pain. Only way I can describe it is on my left side slightly off centre I feel like someone has punched me really hard in the stomach. None of the other incision places hurt in the slightest. Have been allowed 30ml of Water every half an hour which is lovely and have saline drip in the back of my hand for other Fluid.

Like everyone else says the trapped wind/air in the body cavity is the worst thing. Initially had quite bad pain in my left shoulder from trapped air, which has now subsided. Been burping like a fool, and nurse has said that's really good.

Asked to get up and have walked the corridors of hospital 3 times so far

Got to stay in HDU overnight, but what service.... got a nurse all to myself!!

Hope everyone else who have been sleeved today has had a smooth ride, and best of luck to everyone who are having it done in the future.

So glad to hear you are doing so well. That left side pain is most likely where they took the stomach out of.

I wish you the best in the rest of your recovery. I hope all continues to go well. Thanks for the update.

This is my little niece!

She has her surgery tomorrow in KC. I am wishing you all the best, Pammie. You can do this! You'll be sitting on the loser's bench tomorrow afternoon. I will join you there soon

Love ya (((HUGS)))

Ok. Whew! LOL

So I had my procedure and was in a great deal of pain at first. I stared at the clock waiting for the 8 minutes to pass before I could press my pain med button again

I was groggy and pretty out of it.

I took several short naps and one substantial one. After that I got up to try walking but was so "intoxicated" that I could barely stand up. I used the ladies room and laid back down. I stopped taking the morphine and took another nap.

A couple hours after that, I was feeling much more with it and got myself up to use the ladies room and go out for a walk in the halls. Apparently I surprised everyone because they were all pretty impressed. LOL

So now I'm back in bed, sucking ice chips and sipping Water, waiting for my husband to return with my daughter :wub:

I wanted to post earlier but just couldn't get with it. Thank you so much for all the prayers, kind words, and encouragement. It really means a lot.

And congratulations to all the others that were sleeved today...We did it!!

Great news!! So glad to hear you are doing well you made it.. wishing you a fast recovery!
