Fellow Sept 17Thish Sleevers
wantmyhealthback replied to newstart!'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sleeved on 9/17. Pre surgery 226. Now 208. Anyone else having trouble getting in enough protein and vitamins everyday? Protein shakes are too sweet and I am struggling with nausea a lot. -
Any September People
wantmyhealthback replied to newgrandmother's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was sleeved on the 17th. Really thought I was doing well. Last three-day I sleep a lot and have gotten behind on my water. Not having pain, but burning if I bend the wrong way. Liquids really getting old. Anyone else have these problems or am I worrying too much? -

I had my surgery on Monday the 17th. Very large hiatal hernia repaired and sleeve completed. I came home today. Anyone else get really cold especially when your bladder is ready to produce? I did this in the hospital too. Wakes me up shivering. My temp is fine, no fever. Had no problems in hospital, but didn't produce a lot. Now that I am home it is every hour. -

I have really been suffering the ill effects of my large hiatal hernia. Did months of tests and then sent to general surgeon. He wanted me to lose 100-120 lbs prior to surgery. Went to seminar to learn about bariatric surgery. I will have my hernia repaired and my sleeve at the same time. On my 2 week pre surgery liquid diet. I do well with the calories, but struggling to not go over in protein. Surgery on the 17th. Have 2 friends at work that have had the sleeve (one in Dec and 1 last month). Went to monthly support group and the friend a month out from surgery was the one everyone wanted to talk to.

Anesthesia Worry
wantmyhealthback replied to roni 711's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I told the anesthesiologist at my pre admission visit and told me they could cut back on the relaxation drugs so I would wake up sooner. Enough that I am relaxed, but not quite so much. -
