im sleeved! , 8 hours post op

Hey all im finally sleeved and i muat say ive had an incredible ride here. Ive had a little pain in my incisions so little i havent even had pain medication. Also my surgeon did an incredible job with taking most if not all the gases. I have not felt anything as far as gas pain goes. I honestly except for the little discomfort in my incisions i feel 100% normal. Im hoping it continues. They gave me nothing today by mouth. Tomorrow they do my leak test and then start to zip water. Hopefully by Friday i can go home!

Awesome keep us posted! Congrats! I will be going for my 4th of 6 pre op visits then get a date for July myself.

That's so great! Mine is scheduled for June 11th, it's very comforting to know your doing so wonderful so soon after surgery. I won't lie, I'm kinda terrified about the surgery part! I hope the rest of your journey is smooth sailing!

Awesome!!! I am scheduled June 13th. So excited to hear you are doing great!!!

So many people know their surgery date so early. All I know is that mine will be in July, my 6 th month from my first consultation.

YEA!!!!! Two thumbs up for the positive experience; congratulations and good wishes for the remainder of the journey,

Thank you guys for the well wishes i know you all will do great. Yes i was terrified, especially when i got to the OR and thought to myself "wow this is really it, no turning back now" but the anesthesiologist gave me something to relax and told me ill see you in a few minutes and i was out. Didn't feel a thing i think i even had a dream lol. But still doing great. Im off oxygen hopefully ill continue like this.
