    5 day post op pain

    I would agree and say ask your doc, because that's never a bad idea. However, I had my surgery March 28 also. There is one incision, the one next to my belly button that is swollen and sore. The rest are fine. From what I heard that's where the stomach was taken out, so it's likely to give you more pain then the rest.

    March sleevers

    How are you March sleevers doing? I am on day 4. I can't get comfortable and sleep very long, so it's the middle of the night and I'm up and on here. Is anyone else in their first week?

  4. I'm getting sleeved 3/28! How is everyone's liquid diet going (if you doc requires one )?

    Getting nervous

    I'm also the 28th and I feel the same.
  6. I'm getting sleeved March 28. Liquid diet starts in a week and a half. When is your surgery?

    Anyone 5'3-ish and HW around 230?

    Yea, we are right at the 40 bmi. My doc told me not to lose and lb's before the liquid stage so the ins couldn't refuse to cover.

    I just did the upper Gi last week. That was rough! It's such a long process, but I'm sure totally worth it! Good luck with your appointments today and thanks for the info! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

    Lovex, I am also using Dr. O'Connell! I'm in the same boat with all of the pre op testing and 3 months on the nutrition program. So far I have done every test except sleep study, I am going this Sat to pick the device up. I have my third nutrition appointment with Josh on Monday. Were you scheduled right after your three months were up, or did it take longer to get everything with the office and ins to get approval? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

    @ woman, for me it was a toss up between Virtua and Cooper. A friend of mine went with Cooper, so I went with them. I still have half of the clearance appts to go so I hope to get the surgery in March. Good luck Jenn and Kim!! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
