Getting sleeved at 9:30 in the morning and am going through all the motions. Do any of you know if I can ask my Anesthesiologist for an anti nausea patch before going under??

Thank you and all prayers are welcome!

ABSOLUTELY! Let them know you suffer from motion sickness and they will premedicate you to make sure you don’t get sick! Patients that wake up vomiting are a huge aspiration risk and they don’t want that.

I am getting sleeved at 1:10 PM EST tomorrow. I bet that your anesthesiologist will give you a patch either way. I met with mine. He told me of the drug cocktail I will get when i arrive. The patch was one of the items in the mix.

Good luck to you!

I was given the patch, worked great. Doc did not tell me not to touch it! If you touch it and then touch your eye, it will burn.

Good luck!

Thanks for that info!!

I let them know I get sick from anesthesia and got a patch which they put behind my ear. I think I also got some medicine. Didn't get sick so I guess it worked. Definitely let them know you want the patch.

Hi. Just checking in. How’s your Fluid intake? How’s your pain level? Do you know when you will be released?

I hope you are doing well.

I just got home, pain is moderate, not gonna lie. The gas pains are gnarly. I’m getting about an oz every half hour to hour. My back is killing me from laying in bed. Walking really does help. Sorry I sound like such a wuss, I know everyday will get better!

And it will, you've been through a lot in a short period of time, it will take time for your body to adapt to all the changes. You might have been asleep but your body says I was Right There When All This Happened to Me-I'll be okay in a little while but I've had a Shock! Walk when you can,nap when you need to but remember to get those fluids in! "When you are nice and moist Your Body Cells All Rejoice" And please continue to update us,we pre surgs[emoji173] to hear these stories, reaffirms we are making the right choice also. And when I have a problem I can say Oh Sarah had that too, she got through it okay, I can too![emoji12]

You’re so awesome! I keep telling myself one day at a time, tomorrow will be better and the day after that even better! Just took my pain meds and had half a s/f popsicle. Trying the best I can. Haven’t thrown up so doing pretty good! When’s your surgery? Oh and here’s this... IMG_2212.JPG

Well you look like someIone used you for target practice. Poor little tummy you look all beat up but you'll heal soon and serve Sarah very well. If you are a good tummy and you don't give Sarah too much grief, she might take you for a walk later[emoji12]Happy to hear you're fine and on the path to good things.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
