Yes it was a hiatal hernia, I guess I still have my fat fingers but only got a short time! Lol my phone has a mind of its own! But joking aside it was pretty scary to wake up and see how long I was under! Sugar shot to 300 and they had to give me insulin and my blood pressure was so high they gave me two shots for that! What was crazy was they did it with me standing and my feet hurt worse than the surgery! -

Had my sleeve on jan , 7 2019 felt pretty good but surgery took 7. 1/2 hours due to me having a acid reflux surgery in the past and I had developed another hernia and that was repaired! Was a little concerned about not going to the bathroom it seemed like I was full of food but I wasn’t getting rid of it but today things started moving and I feel better! -
