I am out of surgery and doing well. The pain meds are wonderful so I am not experiencing much pain. No nausea, I asked for the patch. I love the ice chips, I just tried to walk to the bathroom and got really dizzy, I need to take it slower. The staff here at Kiaser are amazing!

I will pray for you, they sound like they are being very careful and that is good. If they find any issues early the outcome is so much better. My surgeon just called me at home, to check up on me, love him

welcome home jstachic!

shortstuff4ever78 - did you get to go home last night or did they keep you another night? My mom finally got to go home around 6:15. Of course we hit a ton of traffic. She was happy to be home and in her own bed. I hope they got your blood pressure under control. We could've been out of there earlier, but mom had some sort of allergic reaction to the pill form of the pain med they gave her and broke out in a red, itchy rash so they had to give her some Benadryl.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
