I have both my nipples pierced, and the nurse asked the anesthesiologist, and he said shouldn't be a problem, they taped everything else. my ears, wedding ring, good girl ring, everything. I would have took them out, had them 5 yrs now, but didn't have too. think it just depends on the comfort level of your team

sleeved the 16th, omg, the gas pains, not so much even gas, but the bloating painful need to burp feeling but can not...I'm getting a little worried, Dr. said he stitched me extra snug, not sure what that means. this will be one of the best things I have ever done, I'm just going thru some major WTH was I thinking...Tons of walking, malox, very little relief.. I'm a little scared, Thank you. for everyone's posts, sharing your journeys are enlightening, and gratefully appreciated -
Seems like 2 sips is too much, getting a little worried. walking, walking, walking...the gas, and pressure is horrid, nothing comes up

Day After Surgery - Would Love Some Input
Frknmidget replied to MsPuse's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm 2 days post op, the gas pains are horrible, lots of walking, Dr. Said he made me super snug, (not sure what he meant) can start full liquids today, very tired, pain is tolerable, spasms suck tho. Just this morning can burp, and toot a little. Doesn't seem to help much, 2 tiny sips and feel bloated full, I hear it gets easier, sure hope so -

2 Wake Ups... OMG such aprehension, This will be the best thing Iv'e ever done for myself

My day is the 16th, I haven't packed anything, I go home the same day< I read my surgeons, are the only guys in the "world" that send home same day..? Thank god for confidence, competence, AND skill!!!(Puget Sound Surgical Center) Dr. Landerholm will be doing my sleeve, Dr. Billing took my gallbladder out in Jan. I guess all 3 surgeons will be in there, they assist each other, I am wearing comfy clothes, to and from, and taking lip balm.. I am terrified, I really didnt think this day would ever get here, and didn't plan very well.I will go back the following morning for IV fluids, to insure hydration, and another check up, and be seen every week (i think he said) for the next 2 months,. SO I guess in a sense I will have a 'staycation' O and I have to take my cpap machine, and will take a hair tie... Good luck to us all, what a hell of a road trip we are embarking on huh????

My date is next wed... so nervous! The Pre op diet was basically The Atkins diet, not to bad, felt hungry all the time, missed fruit, Ive only lost One pound, in 2 weeks, but many inches.. odd?? I've lost almost 65 pounds since starting this whole process, but was still mad about one pound...(I did have my clothes on, cute boots and a jacket.. O the things I tell myself, lol) This whole thing from start to finish has been about a year, to the date actually, I'm very lucky to have incredible insurance, (yay Boeing!) It feels like its been forever tho, like Ive weighted my whole life, which I have. -
