God's Grace 3 Posted April 17, 2012 Congrats Danielle! I live in Northwest Ft. Worth (Keller)' date=' scheduled to have my surgery done by Dr. Stowers in Decatur. Been reading many success stories on here! Would be great to have several sleevers local [/quote'] Hi! I had my surgery on 3/29 in Decatur with Dr. Kim. Just a heads up, if you are at Wise Regional Medical Center you have to ASK for any pain killer stronger than Tylenol. I had a very rough first night and my nurse told me I couldn't have any more Tylenol for an hour. I then asked if I could have something stronger than Tylenol and they did give me the morphine. :-). The nurse told me I had to ask for it and have a high number on the pain scale. Once I had that I was MUCH better! :-). I liked the nurses and staff. They were very helpful.

sharpone 0 Posted April 28, 2012 I was sleeved on April 3rd by Dr. Nicholson. Down 25lbs so far. I live in Plano. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
claudiahayden 6 Posted April 29, 2012 I was sleeved on April 3rd by Dr. Nicholson. Down 25lbs so far. I live in Plano. Awesome sharpone? Any problems? I was sleeved 4/25 and about the only problem I am having is getting dizzy sometimes during the day for a few hours. Not exactly sure what is causing it.

sharpone 0 Posted April 30, 2012 My only problems have been related to having surgery, not necessarily the sleeve itself. I have had pain in the left side, horribly. At week two, I was feeling better and overdid it planting flowers, resulting in major muscle pain and BURNING for 5 days! Other than the pain, I feel great. I love not longing for food as I did before. Your dizziness could be pain meds, residual anesthesia etc. I do remember being light headed and weak for several days after surgery. I hope it gets better. Stephanie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am helping the dizziness continues to move on out of here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
