Where are my maryland sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I am feeling pretty good and have been able to sip my liquids and Protein Shakes easily so far! I only stayed in the hospital one night! So glad to sleep in my own bed tonight!!

How are you feeling? Have you lost a lot? I hope all is wonderful. Can't wait to hear about it at the next support group.

I am so sorry!!! I'm sure you are incredibly frustrated.

I was very worried about some unforeseen testing' date=' but I got my results and everything came out ok.

Did dr g give you an idea of what you need to do, and when he can reschedule?[/quote']

Well all my pre results were fine... It was once he opened me up on the OR table.... So just in a few months I'm hoping June... Happy birthday to me!

I am even more sorry now. Not good news to come out of anesthesia to.

Keep us updated. I'm glad it's just a bump and not a brick wall.

I am also from St Mary's / Southern Calvert County (work in one, live in the other) and went to JH Bayview last year. I loved the Doctor, but did not care for his staff. Not sure where to go now.

Just want to say Hi to see if anyone from Maryland is still checking this forum. I am from Baltimore and would love to touch base with anyone in the Maryland area. Waiting for surgery date.

Im in MD, near UMD. I was sleeved by Hopkins Bariatric Chair and surgeon Dr Michael Schweitzer on Oct 15 at Hopkins Bayview. Super smooth surgery and recovery! Wonderful program at JHU from start to finish.

I'm interested to know Md sleevers how has it been since surgery? And what are some of the things that stand out to be mindful about post op? I am waiting for my approval and a tentative date for December 30 with Dr. Singh. I am really anxious waiting and can't wait to be sleeved. How long did it take for you guys to get approval I have BCBS carefirst.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
