Doug2090 0 Posted August 2, 2010 Hi all, I am new to this websit. I am having my sleeve done next Friday :001_tongue: Super excited about the whole process. I appreciate knowing the good, bad and ugly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eureka-C 20 Posted August 2, 2010 I have read lots of "good,bad, & ugly" posts on here. It doesn't take long to search around and find. I don't even have a date set yet, so maybe you can come back and tell all of us those things you would have liked to know before your surgery. Good Luck!

thisislou 13 Posted August 5, 2010 Hi I had my sleeve 3 weeks ago in Orlando - ORMC - where are you having yours done? My experience was very good - the only pain was when I came to in recovery and that only lasted a few minutes. No gas experience as many others have had, no feeling of being kicked in the stomach. My surgeon is the best and the hospital had their stuff together. I would be glade to answer any questions you might have... Lou Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
