Hello Everyone
I am a Nurse so going into this surgery I was a little troubled about getting the surgery. At first I was getting the Lap Band until I had a bad sprain to a ankle that I previously fractured really bad. With the help of my Dietitian and Surgeon I decided to go with the Sleeve. Because of my injury I gained and lost gained finally day of surgery I weighed in at 341lbs. The surgery went well but my first couple of days were painful. I had vomiting, nausea, and horrible gas pains. On top of everything I started my cycle ten days earlier as well. I have been able to tolerate juices broths and I am trying a cream Soup tonight for the first time. I had my favorite restaurant to blend blend my favorite cream of crab soup. I am also feeling some numbness in my right arm and having a hard time sleeping. Will this go away?
