Mine is on the 19th only a few on here with that date. So i hope im not butting in. I go Monday for my upper endo. The pre op has not been to bad I've had 3 weeks of muscle milk light. I've lost 25lbs so far and 12lbs before the pre op. I've been trying to talk myself out of the surgury so I'm guessing my nerves are getting to me. But I'm committed to do it. I'm not getting younger (40) and its getting harder the more I gain. Was 352lbs I am just really nervous my wife has had 2 c-sections and her Gaul bladder out. She calls me a big wimp. I guess I'll see. Good luck to y'all to.

I am having pain on the right side and in my back I am trying to get down my liquids. I was able to on yesterday but today I am really struggling with it. I really don't want to get dehydrated so i am trying to force it. I am very weak today and have a slight headache.

Mommeof3 I've been using icy hot patches on the back of my neck and one on spine it's helped a lot. my back and headaches are gone within mins. My side still kills.

I was sleeved on the 17th too. My first day was my worst by far, had a difficult time with the anesthesia, also have a very large hematoma on the right side of my abdomen.. I have to say that other than that and the occasional gas pain, I'm doing surprisingly well. Getting my fluids in is getting easier so much so that I called the NUT to be sure it was okay. I'm doing 8 oz of liquid in like 30 minutes

I will pray for you. I really believe prayer works! Im having mine oct 11th. Scared excited nervous ect. A lot of encouragement here though!
