Feb. 14, 2018 Sleevers

Anyone having their sleeves being done on Feb.14,2018? Are you nervous? I'm guessing I would have to start my 14-day pre-op diet at the end of the month on the 31st? I also have about 3 pre-op appointments to go to... I'm thinking about taking 11 days off.. Would that be enough or too many days off?.. hmmm...

    How are you doing/ feeling?

    I am good. Tomorrow is the big day. I'm excited so sleeping is difficult. How are you?

    Kick back and relax Darlin. Tomorrow is your big big day. Go to the hospital with peace in your [emoji173]. Climb upon that cart, lay back and relax. Anesthesia isn't that bad, it's so good anymore it's like a smooth nap. I've lived long enough I could tell you about the bad old drugs. Ether made you nauseated going to sleep. you usually woke up puking and felt like you'd had bad food poisoning and a headache too. Let your doctor do the magic, Bariatric surgeons do it often, they do it well and it's not their first rodeo. They want a successful outcome just as much as you do. When you wake up you may feel a little sore, but on the other hand you may not. One of my own friends told me it wasn't even as bad as the time her 5 year old head-butted her in the belly. Get up and walk as soon as you're able, you'll hurt less and it will,be rid of the gas in your belly sooner. Try to get fluids in, take small slow sips. Be good to yourself and you'll end up just fine. I'll be praying for you tomorrow. Let us know how things are going, you are important to us. God Bless.
