To Those Sleeved By Dr. Garcia In March - How Are You Feeling?



Recommended Posts

Hello all' date=' I am just posting an update to this forum for those who are looking for a more recent sleever. My surgery was on the 11th of June and I was up and at 'em as soon as I returned to the room from the OR. I was tired from the meds but my pain was minimal. Everyone's bedside manor there was wonderful and professional. My favorite nurse was Karen. Everyone was willing to answer all my questions and even assist with my friend who traveled along. Yes he was bored but he was uber prepared for the boredom. The Marriott was just that...the Marriott. I am extremely picky and very hard to please, so if I didn't have a complaint then you know things went very well. The level of customer service and professionalism was off the charts. I would recommend Dr. Fernando Garcia to anyone who needed it!!!![/quote']

Sounds likes my experiences congrats on your surgery......

Girlfriday when you get there you will be at ease. I didn't get my jitters until I changed into my gown before the operation. I think it was because I've never been in the hospital before. I was just wanted it to be over with and to not be nauseated and not feel the pain from the gas. The key is to WALK WALK WALK!! You will do great!!

I'm paying the $500 deposit today and I am sooo nervous! I plan on having my surgery 9/20 and I couldn't be anymore stressed out! Surgery really freaks me out but at this point I don't feel like I have another option to get all this weight off :(
