On February 1st I finally got my gastric sleeve! I guess the old saying 3rd times a charm worked. I've gone in 3 times to get my sleeve the first they found a MASSIVE haital Hernia. 1/3rd of my stomach in my chest. So fixed that. 2nd time they sent after waiting for hours because they had no beds. ( I have to travel 1 1/2 hours to get there) on Feb 1st we got it done. I'm home, with such minimal pain that it's wonderful. I hope and pray for all coming g up for surgery that you have as little di omfort as I have had.

We’re surgery twins, but in my case I have a lot of pain on my right side.

Oh, I'm so sorry you're in pain. Maybe mine is there but I have a very, very high tolerance to pain. Plus I've had more than my share of surgeries. 40. But I'm glad to have a surgery twin

Congratulations and I'm glad you are doing well after the surgery.
