Hi everyone, as i have said before i am 4 mths post op but still dont feel quite 'normal' yet. Does anybody else feel like this? I seem to always feel better in the afternoon but i never wake up and bounce out of bed anymore. All my blood work is normal so just hoping its my body adjusting to the new me!

Everyone is so different. We all have fears that something is going to happen to ruin our new goals and mind set. You will get stronger and stronger as time goes on. Maybe you might want to try to hire a trainer for a bit to get you going again. If all the Doctors are satisfied that you are okay. Maybe push the next step. It can be so exhilarating to exercise. I always feel very high after I do that.....

Me right now am on hold as well. i have a new issue with my sleeve and am just trying to get better myself. So I know the frustration that can happen when you are on this journey!

Raj what issue do you now have with the sleeve? I know you have been through hell but hoped you were all ok now.

mmmmm as a nearly almost decided to go ahead with the sleeve it is interesting reading the above and wondering what the 'issues' you are experiencing with the sleeve. happy to know all good and not so good information if you are willing to write about these.

I am one of the very very few people who have had one complication after another....I have been in and out of the hospital continually since my surgery in 2012.

From a leak to a coma to 14 surgeries and then a category 5 bed sore...Five months of no food and now I have an abscess due to a pin hole leak. Now I have a drain in my side and they are trying to drain it. 6 weeks I have to keep the drain and I have a nurse that comes in every day to flush it out..Hurts like the dickens. but it is what it is...

I am thrilled with my progress and would not change my decision to have this done. I am a live where before I was just existing....I am so grateful for the sleeve. But I was a rare patient that had it all go wrong.....

I did not have a clue about any of what what going or could have happened from this choice....If you want more detail...PM me and I'll tell you want you need to know...no problem...I am sure people are tired of hearing my story by now...lolol
