    Where are my maryland sleevers?

    Yes I was sleeved in November.. Which Dr are you going to use?
  2. No I had it open because my doctor prefers the open method & only does the open surgeries.
  3. My surgery was November 8.. I lost 23lbs but have been stuck there for almost 2 weeks now.. The dietician informed me that I need more calories.. I really can't do too much walking because I had the open sleeve & now I have a wound from my staples opening.. It's really frustrating because I keep thinking maybe I am not gonna lose any more..

    Open Procedure?

    I had the open procedure but I knew in advance That I was having it.. My doctor prefers to do all of his procedures open. My staples actually opened up & now I have a wound to take care of 2 times daily.. My surgery was done last month so I am still healing from everything .. I still don't regret the surgery despite my setbacks..
  5. No i am not waiting anymore because I am 7 days post op now .. But I will tell you this I had to go thru the 6 month process too, I got tired , restless, discouraged ... As soon as I stopped thinking about it, the doctors office called with the approval & a surgery date for 2 weeks later.. Then I thought it was going by too fast & my nerves kicked.. Just relax they will call when you least expect it

    I'm Fnally Sleeved

    I felt the same way that you did.. My surgery was done 11-8-12 so I am 7 days in.. The first day of the surgery while in recovery, I cried and said I should have never did this.. I have been thru a lot of pain but honestly nothing like that.. My sleeve was done open though & not laparoscopic so that probably was most of the pain.. I feel good now.. I don't use the pain pills or anything.. Hang in there
