I was sleeved Weds 8/28 morning was supposed to have gone home Friday but my white count was up! Dr said it always goes up with surgery but 2 days after it should have gone down and mine actually went up....so make sure you use your incentive spirometer and open your lungs back up! She told me she didn't care if it hurt I HAD to do it or I WILL end up with pneumonia...I puffed on that thing like a mad woman yesterday!! ????
