Momstertimes3 3 Posted March 12, 2012 I don't live in Vegas. I live in Seattle. A friend of mine was sleeved by Dr. Umbach about a year & 1/2 ago and had a good experience. I had a great experience with Dr. Umbach last week. Feel free to ask specific questions. Even if you have questions about the hotel stay & recovery. Loran Loran, I live in Las Vegas so I will come home after the surgey thanks. How did you do on the Pre-op shakes? I am a self pay patient my insurance does not cover the surgery so I will not meet the Dr until 3-22. So you saying it was a great experience is great to here. How are you feeling after the surgery? Thanks Patty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennJ.RN 10 Posted March 12, 2012 March 10th Sleevers, how are you guys doing? Honestly, I feel terrible. Wasn't expecting this much pain. Lortab elixir makes me vomit, had to get pills instead.. Feeling stronger every day though I question why I did this?? LOL Just really sore and having a hard time getting all my liquids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
