Getting Sleeved FRIDAY!!! October 8th!



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else getting sleeved Friday? I am excited but nervous....and I must say the 2 week liquid diet is awful. I had horrible headaches the first couple of days and then my GERD (acid reflux) got horrible. Had to triple my medicine to calm it down.

My husband comes home yesterday and tells me that his co-worker told him that he better tell me he loves me before I go into surgery. Okay, why did he tell ya that? Because another co-workers mom had the bypass done and never recovered from it and died 8 months later. I'm thinking gee thanks. I know he loves me, but it did get me to thinking the what if. I was nervous enough, dang!

Wishing anyone else getting theirs good luck and I haven't weighed during my liquid stage, so I have no ideal how much I've lost.

I will be sending positive thoughts your way! Just ignore all of those comments and think about your great new life that is about to start. I saw a story of a twelve year old being sleeved and she is doing great! So, that means we can do this too. Good luck! Hugs~

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
