    March Sleevers Where are You

    It's been 4 weeks.... Sleeved on 3/25! HW 243 SW 232 CW 212
  7. I felt pretty good too... I chalk it up to the anesthesiologist put a scopolamine patch on me before the OR and my physician inserted an On Q pump into my abdomen..., continuously administers numbing/pain med into the abdomen thru a small tube via one the incisions. I think these two things made my recovery easier.

    Pain with vsg and hernia repair

    I had a hernia repair too. The area around my belly button is very bruised! Had a lot of gas the first couple of days but has decreased significantly!

    march sleevers the good and the bad

    St. Louis, MO... sleeved on 3/25. Very smooth recovery... no nausea, vomiting and minimal pain. Am getting protein in with 2 premier shakes and injury chicken soup. Sipping all day long to get the 64oz fluid requirement. Biggest challenge is figuring out the vitamins. Lots to take! Should be able to advance to phase 2 diet after MD visit tomorrow.
