Any one go home the same day ?
cheryl_gut replied to rosie6's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My dr does outpatient regardless if you are self pay or not. I was self pay and it was $1900 per night extra. I would have stayed if needed but I really didnt need to. They loaded me up with IV drugs and fluids before I left. I didnt vomit once (and havent once since surgery) or really feel nauseous. My husband had nursed me through major back surgery the year before and he is very keen on my pain levels etc. and was lucky to have him help me through this procedure. He was methodical in measuring my liquids and tracking them for the first three days. I was happy to be in my own bed and have my puggle by my side to help me heal!!! -

My surgery was at 9am and i was home by 5pm. Surgery on Tuesday, driving by Friday and back to work the next Monday. Best decision ever!!!! Good luck! -
When did you start losing hair?
cheryl_gut replied to ChloeSleeved's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Im six months out today. Mine started at about 4 months. I clean my brush out everyday. I am going to get a lob on Friday so my long hair doesnt start to look stringy. Hopefully it will stop soon and i can start letting it grow out again. -

I Went to dr stowers in Plano! He was amazing! Outpatient, back to work in 4 days havent thrown up once or had any issues at all! I think Dr Stowers and his team really have the secret sauce for this surgery! I asked him at my post op if he was sure he operated on me!

I am sorry But the murdered potato made me laugh out loud. I have my first family dinner tonight and I think it’s going to be a similar disaster. FIL is making country ribs and steak neither of which I have ever been able to Chew because they are so tough. And I am still on soft foods still.

Yeah. I really have no idea. Sorry.

So was I. They were able to get insurance to pick up a portion due to a hiatal hernia.
