Sleeved In Mexico By Dr. Alvarez Today!



Recommended Posts

Soooo excited!!! (Yet groggy, lol)

Everything was so quick and easy. I don't remember a thing. I was the second today to have my surgery. There were only 4 for the whole day. At around 10:30 AM I was given something to relax me, and at 3:30 I woke up already having been in my hospital room for hours. I was only under for 35 min. But I still needed my rest I guess. Then I had my cousin call my people (family, friends) for me and let them know I was ok. Then I went back to sleep till 6-6:30. Then I got up and walked down the hallway. Climbed back in bed, had my cousin and Jesus set up my extension cord, plugged in my iPhone and iPad and I'm good to go :-)

I totally recommend Dr. Alvarez!! Not only is he fine! But he's sweet, funny, and good at what he does. His staff is great too! I'll probably add more as my stay here goes on, but for now I'm tired. Goodnight :-)

Thanks guys for your support, prayers, and well wishes. I woke up and read them all and they gave me a smile :-) I'm still hooked up to the IV and in hardly any pain. No acid reflux, hardly any discomfort. I slept like a rock. But! I did bring ear plugs ( my cousin snores lol). I'm just gonna surf the web a little and go back to bed.

Sweetsusie! I showed Dr. Alvarez your pic! He remembers you and commented on how thin you are. I forgot to tell Jessica, sorry. But I was dealing with some pain today. Everyone here is so nice! I'm sad to be leaving tomorrow. But very hopeful for my future. :-)

I was sleeved by Dr. A in August. He is one truly great man, easy on the eyes too :)

Littlehope126.... I think you were there with Tami. I had chatted with her on the phone about my surgery experience. I am so glad that you did well. Hopefully you are feeling good now :) It takes a month or two to feel yourself again, but it will happen!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
