Oh I'm sorry to hear you're having so much pain! I've read that after day 3 it usually eases off, I hope you get better sooner than that. (Hugs)

How frustrating that you were told you'd be first and you weren't. "/

I'm going to be angry if I'm not first. That's bull.[/quote']

Only one person can be first, so I would go with the idea that it won't be you. That way you won't be disappointed and you may be pleasantly surprised! It's much better to be pleasantly surprised than upset, especially on surgery day. :)

I think one of the factors for my surgeon was who had the farthest to travel to get back home. (I was second out of three of us.)

Thanks ladies. I am already feeling a lot better. I've been on pain medicine so it definitely helps. I don't know why everyone say walk walk walk cos I don't feel like its helped me at all. sleeping has helped me the most. The leak tests are yucky but really not that bad, they taste better than any cough medicine I've ever had. I mostly just feel thirsty and tired. I'll keep you guys posted. Xoxo

Oh! I should have said that I have also requested to be first and have been told that I will be. :) thanks for being polite when you were probably scratching your head at my comment. Actually, I'll edit it. :)

Lucky you! That's great! I remember my surgeon asking all of us that were schedule that day who wanted to go first and none of us did! I sure didn't; but I didn't want to be last, either!

Well, I'm also going to dr. Garcia, like the op. now I'm wondering if I'll actually be first.

I was giggling when thinking about it today, thinking that most people probably don't want to go first. I just feel that the surgeon will be refreshed from a nights sleep and ready to tackle a new day of stomach scraps first thing in the morning. Hehe

Worse than a csection?? Oh no. I don't think that I could tolerate that pain. I could hardly walk after my csection :/

A lot of people think its easier than a c section. Just because it hasn't been for me doesn't mean it will be for you. You'll do great sweetie

I had my gall bladder out and a c-section. C-Section hurt worse for me.

I had really easy csections so the sleeve was way worse for me too. If you had a rough csection, you'll probably think the sleeve was easier. Both surgeries are well worth it though and soon the discomfort will be a distant memory!!! Glad you're doing well iwilliam!!

      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! 😞
