I had mine done on the 3rd! You're absolutely right about how fast the time flies by.

It'll be here before you know it! Mine was just done last Monday and it felt like everything just whizzed by lol.. Good luck!

Just wanted to say hey and good luck to everyone on their current and/or future sleeve journey. I just had my sleeve done on 4/3/17 and am on post op day 5. I wish I had found the forum prior to my surgery, but oh well. --Sean

Hey Jade! Each day I feel a little better. The day after surgery was probably the worst for me. The gas pain that I experienced (which I wish I had been forewarned about) was incredible. I was super sore in my upper back and shoulders. It took about 2 days for the pain to dissipate. I have no pain in the incision sites, just a huge eggplant colored bruise from the heparin shots, from my mid chest, all the way down my stomach. The only issue I've had, and I've only found a few cases of it, is immediately upon waking up from surgery I had a strong electrical pain in my right quadricep muscle and made my muscle spasm. Since then, it comes and goes with burning, tingling, and numbness. I will be addressing it with my Dr on Tuesday at my 1 week follow up. We'll see how it goes. I haven't struggled at all with my liquids thankfully. That was one of my biggest concerns going in. --Sean
