I'm so excited about my surgery it can't get here soon enough even though it is on my husbands birthday but that's ok he's fine with it and tells me he's so proud of me for taking that step to better my life even though I've ran into a road block, i had my mammogram last Monday and got called back in for retesting and a ultrasound, so now I'm having to have a biopsy on my right Brest Oct. 16th but the Doctor told me not to get to stressed over it that hopefully it's just a cyst, I have to think positive and pray that it's nothing, I'm new to the site so any more Sleevers input would be greatly appreciated!

Tomorrow's the day. Starting to worry I'm going to struggle with no longer having my favorite foods. Did anyone feel this way? I know I'm better off but nervous.

Yes... Still dealing with it one week post op. My wife wanted pizza one night. I couldn't help myself, I took a bite. Chewed it till all the favor was gone then spit it out. Not my proudest moment, but I got through it.

I totally did the same thing you did. I cooked pizza for my son yesterday and it smelled so wonderful. I just put some pepperoni and cheese in my mouth chewed it and spit it out. I realized then I can do this for a month. Anyway nothing was damaged in the chew and spit. Lol

I am one day post op. The surgery was not bad at all. My stomach has only been mildly sore. I was in recovery in tears for twp hours bc i had severe heart burn and upper back pain. I am still not hungry at all but very thirsty all the time. I drink medicine capfuls of water every 15 minutes. I should be gping hpme this morning. Cannot wait to be in my own bed.

Was your heart burn cramp like ?

It just burns like crazy and makes me very uncomfortable. I can feel it all the way thru my back. They gave me milk of magnesia here and i have some other stuff to sprinkle on my food or drink as well for heartburn/acid.

On the other side of surgery, gas pains were the worst. Every day is getting better, walk as much as you can because painkillers don't touch gas pains. Stay strong and remind yourself it doesn't last forever.

Yes at the hospital the gas was what hurt the most not my cuts but the gas and I think it's still what's bothering me since I can feel it on my back but no burning just cramps but really bad ones on my upper stomach

I was sleeved nov 7 everyday is better but the big cut is killing meee sometimes i feel down because some people are pain free but im not going to lie.. it hurts thank God gas was not a problem for me..

Tomorrow Is my big day. I can't wait , I'm so excited I hope I can sleep tonight. See y'all on the losers bench!

Good luck tomorrow I bet it will go great

So far I feel like I am doing ok. I dont regret it but its definitely hard.i can only take 2-3 sips of anything before I feel the heartburn.Then I have to make myself burp before it stops. I finally today started with the gas. I do know there is absolutely no way possible I can get in all the protein and fluids that they are requesting. I can already tell that my taste have changed.I tried some blended cream of chicken soup today and it tasted yuck. Popsicles are my best friend.
