albertogunz 1 Posted December 21, 2010 I made it... At 7:30 AM this morning I was sleeves and had mt gall bladder removed to boot. I can't believe I finally got here, i feel pretty good all things considered, I have walked around a couple of times already, went to the bathroom and the pain is definitely manageable-not that bad at all. I am so grateful to have this community, I need it to remain accountable. Thank you all RFID all the positive feedback and warm wishes, I couldn't have gotten here without you guys. I'm excited to let the post-op journey begin. Best of all I haven't been hungry at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lamsunshine 2 Posted December 21, 2010 wow, you are doing real well to have been sleeved this morning. I was not up to doing much of anything for at least 24 hours after surgery. I think that is a good sign. Congrats, what a great Christmas present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cinderella 2 Posted December 21, 2010 Contratulations on joining the club! I can't believe you're up and posting... although I did get up and walk, I mostly slept all day and night the first day, and kept pusing that pain pump button! You will do GREAT!!! Just don't overdo... Cinderella Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MistyB 3 Posted December 21, 2010 I was sleeved 6 days ago and had a rough recovery. Today is the first day that I am able to drive & run errands. Be careful and remember that you have a very large cut/stape line on the inside of your body. Rest, drink fluids, & walk around. Take care & best of luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
