To all -- I dont have my surgery date yet but I do know that any support is good support!.. I have met a few people on line and been with them every step of the way online. Feel free to post here when you are on your way in and when you are on your way out of the hospital.. We are here for you!

Any one being sleeved in the morning? Let's Go! We will be your personal cheerleaders!!!

Hello loves! Had surgery on Monday the 11th. Heading home any minute now. I believe I'm truly one of the lucky ones. Slight nausea right after surgery but meds knocked it out. Passed the leak test yesterday and started the clear liquids. Feels weird going down...lots of little gas pockets going down and coming up but nothing horrible. Tolerated warm and cold just fine. Quite a bit of soreness at the main incision site on my left side and body aches and pains but all tolerable. Even giving myself the blood thinning shots isn't as bad as I was dreading it would be. About to enjoy my last hospital meal then off to home sweet home. Best wishes to everyone in recovery and soon facing surgery! So glad to be sleeved!! ♡

In the hotel now. Was sleeved Monday. And feel a little rough but not really bad just like you'd expect going through surgery. Had a nap and feel better. I feel like I could tackle the world one minute and ready for bed five minutes later. Still working on small sips. That's hard!

Surgery was today and i feel pretty good, just a bit of gas discomfort but knocking.that out with mint and ginger! Still not out of the woods, but I trust things will be well as that is what Im speaking!

*mint and ginger tea! Saw that on Dr.Oz

Wow mine too!! It's rolling around and churning like crazy. At least it isnt painful though.

I'm so sorry that I haven't been on to update everyone but surgery was a breeze. No pain, no nausea and no gas pains. Doing really well according to my nurse. Do it again in a heartbeat!!

Awesome kenai! Glad you are doing well. Keep it up!

Ok maybe im just sensitive. To me it feels like someone is inside squeezing my stomach section by section. My dr and some felloe sleevers believe its because of the lack of food/protein intake... ill take half of a percocet until it calms down. A muscle relaxer may work but well see.... im a soldier but also do not like narcotics ( family issues). Ill just talk to her for now.
