Hey Sleevers!

Just wondering, is anyone else having a Veritcal Sleeve surgery this month? My surgery is on May 13 (two days before my birthday). Let me know! 💜

P.S If you already had surgery this month, let me know how it went! 🌸

Hey Krestel! From what I have heard, I believe that the nurse will give you an injection, before the surgery, that should help prevent blood clots. Regardless of that, however, I will pray for you!

Yeah, I kniw that, but both my mom and sister died from them. so...scared beyond belief. Only the anesthesia and heart is a very far off second and there im pretty much ok.

I am incredibly sorry to hear that, Krestel. No wonder why you are scared beyond belief. I truly hope that your surgery goes by smoothly and safely; as well as your recovery. Take care! ❤️

My surgery is tomorrow 5/13/19. Today I'm supposedly only drinking clear liquid and the shakes. But I feel so hungry, I'm fighting over not to take a bite. What should I do? Please help. Any suggestions?

You have come to far to “take a bit “. I’m not sure if you had. 2 week liquid diet like most, but stay strong don’t give in to temptation. This is Day 4 for me and with it being a holiday I know temptations is everywhere. But guess what that’s never going to change so hold on you can do it....

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
