Congratulations! I'm sorry I haven't been sleeved yet, I'm sure someone here can help.

Some have nausea, some not so much. Let folks know (I assume you are in the hospital) since you DO NOT want to get dehydrated!

It WILL get better...

How did you like Dr. Peters?

How did you like Dr. Peters?

He was great (all three in the group are). PMRI staff were great, surgery at Christiana and all staff on 7E were super. I have no complaints and I am a happy camper!!!

woo hoo! That is good to hear! I just got my medical clearance from PMRI. I am anxiously/nervously awaiting insurance approval. How large of a pouch did Dr. Peters give you?
