Durham, North Carolina?

[mculb 0]

I was sleeved on November 27th in Fayetteville. I'm down 17 pounds and feeling pretty good. My first week was rough, my hemoglobin dropped low so I was so weak but now I'm back at it strong. I'm so glad I made the decision to have this done.

How is everybody doing with their sleeves? Any stalls yet?

I'm in Cary. I'm getting sleeved 2/15 @ Rex, Dr Tyner is my surgeon. I'm excited this is my second surgery date, 1st one got torpedoed by the flu.

I made an appt to see Dr Tyner next week. I missed my first post op visit ecause of a death in the family. I look and feel good but eager to check in.

I will be having my sleeve at Rex with Dr Tyner. Do any of you guys get together and hang out? Just to talk or to enjoy each others company?

Dr. Tyner did my surgery on 2/15. He fixed a hernia I didn't know I had. I like his vibe and it went smooth. The nursing staff at Rex is top notch, if you're on the 7th floor one of the nurses has had the surgery and was great resource. Just walk as much as you can.

If any one needs a unopened bag of Bariatric Advantage (vanilla). Let me know. I found a premade shake that works better for me.

I am in Raleigh. I am waiting on insurance approval and then my work schedule to lighten. I am hoping by May. I am planning on vsg by Dr. Yoo at Duke. I have not been real good about pre op diet because it seems so unreal not knowing when it will be. Also, i never was real good at dieting,hence the need for the vsg. Would love to have a mentor, hope in a year i can be one.

Congrats on finding Dr Yoo. I would have used him but I was self-pay & could not afford his cost. I wish you the best!
