Got my sleevie yesterday!!!!! Only nausea I had was last night when I stood up for a minute, as soon as I laid down it felt better. Only pain is this one stinkin gassy area, but when I finally laid completely flat it felt much better. I was so hungry yesterday cuz surgery didn't happen until 2:30. It is so weird to not feel hungry NOW. Waiting to do my barium swallow (gag barf) to see if I can start sipping. Oh, and the hysterectomy went well too. I should be released tomorrow.

Good luck today! You've encouraged me about my date - 10/11 in just 12 days! I've read too many "complication stories" and have got myself worked up inside, emotionally, with fear. I know everything will be fine. There are more stories like yours that outweight the "horror" stories! Thanks.

Good Luck on your recovery!!!

Best wishes for a smooth recoveries on both your procedures!

I was sleeved on tuesday and as well got myself really worked up about the 'what ifs'. Day of surgery was painful with the gas coming out and every day since has been great. As long as you doc has a good regime for you to follow you will do great! I even stopped taking pain meds on thursday night. And I barely took any during the day thursday. Just remember to keep walking and sipping. Those are the secrets Good luck

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. My date to be sleeved is Thursday and I have the what if's too. I pray mine is successful.

Go in with a possitive mind and your recovery will be much smoother. Mind over matter. Good luck

Congrats! Keep us updated.

I agree with Holly!
