I've had complications and regret the surgery. I had the first surgery on March 19. A 14 year old nissen wrap at the top of the stomach complicated things by partial blockage. Was very nauseous until the doc had me come back in on Saturday evening, April 6. I had 4 hours surgery to undo the wrap and do a traditional sleeve. Stayed in the hospital until Thursday. Developed a blood clot in my jugular vein while in hospital - on blood thinners now. Today, I threw up the protein drink. If I could turn back the clock, I wouldn't do it. I had considered hypnosis which would have cost me about $1300. Wish I had done that along with diet and exercise. I have 100 lbs to lose. Why couldn't I have lost that weight the normal way. I've been fairly drepressed but I know that is due to the torture my body has been through. I hope someday I am happy with the decision I've made and will be able to eat anything but in small amounts. After all, isn't that what normal people do? Why did I need 2 to 3 slices of pizza when one should have been plenty. I'm going to ignore the March 19 date and consider myself sleeved on April 6. How much longer am I going to feel bad?

I was sleeved on March 19. I felt better when I first came home than now. Nausea and vomitting the last 4 days. No appetite. Doctor put me on chewable prevacid.
