Just finished a full day of "pre" appointments including; psych, nutritional, fitness and pre-surgery consult . Now for blood , EKG , endoscopy. Once that clears ready to set a date. This is the start of a life changing event and I look forward to sharing with my fellow sleeves!

I wouldn't do it awake. There is no good reason to be awake. Eek

Ok now y'all are scaring me boo

I had an upper gi instead

Ok now y'all are scaring me boo

Don't be scared its really easy!! And you will be done before you know it! I promise.. If its not you can come back and yell at me for lying, ok?

Roflmao!!!!! I will be having it done Monday' date=' so I will let you know how it goes. I'm super nervous about it, but the nurse said everyone handles it really well. I'm assuming I will be really numb. My paperwork says the camera is so small that I will still be able to swallow during the procedure. So.... Yeah. Eeek.[/quote']

Let us know for sure. I've put mine off till May to co-ordinate other things. I am planning on doing the sleeve at the end if July as I have preplanned vacations on a cruise and too Hawaii - neither of which would lend to a pre or post op diet!! Can't even imagine the cruise on liquids other than those with fruit and umbrellas in them

Soo turns out if you get your blood work in Canada they make you pay for it if ordered by US doctor . All $300!!!! So if you can get your Canadian doctor to order it!
