Good luck march 20th sleevers im up and ready a peck of emotions on top of hives prayers to us all

I'm at the hospital waiting, hopefully everything goes well

Hows all the march 20th sleevers feel to be sleeved????

I am doing great. I feel rested, cared for, well attended to and lucky today. This has really been a snap for me. Thank you Dr Kelly. Thanks to everyone!!

I'm good, everything went well, and I hardly have any pain. No hunger at all, not like before the surgery, seems like I'm gonna have to force myself to eat, instead of before being sleeved.

Take care y'all!

Well looks like i can possible go home tomorrow swallow test good only issue is blood count dropped more than expected.

The pain for me was worse than I expected. I was super nauseous for 36 hours. Turns out I was intolerant to the medicines they had me on. Now I'm on something new and feel pretty good! Not hungry at all!

Doing well not a lot of pain but had some nausea today. Slept quite a bit and atleast the gas pains are not unbearable. I realize I have to drink slower than I am used to. But doing well thank God

Ahh home. Very painful ride home but much better now. Having a little trouble getting in my liquids but working on it.

Congrats to all of you!!

I'm not in a huge amount of pain but I am pretty uncomfortable from the gas and stuff. Been doing everything by the book and writing down every single thing i do. Overkill maybe but I don't care. I'm going to walk 6x a day...10 minutes each which is what they suggested. They took me off blood pressure meds because I was on a diuretic. So I got a blood pressure monitor to make sure I'm good with that. Doing my breathing treatments too.

I have to stay another day blood count dropped again

Not a whole lot of pain just the uncomfortable gas bloat in the abdominal area. I ave been walking, this helps a lot. A little nausea! No vomiting. Still trying to remember small sips...it's kinda hard to retrain yourself.

Hi just to give an update: I was not able to be sleeved. they found a stomach mass and nodules on my liver and spleen. So far this surgery saved my life... Ok that's the happy note. The part I'm really P'd off about is my biggest fear came true when I woke up and was told it could not be done at this point. My surgeon is AWSOME and said in 2-3 months we can try again!

He removed the mass since it was right where he needed to makeup sleeve. We are wiring in pathology to come back on the nodules and I have to have a liver biopsy today... I'm scared out of my mind.

The mass was not cancer thank God! Just trying to figure out what the other things are!

I hope everyone is doing well' one day ill see you on the other side of thin'
