All Sept 12 Sleevers - Are You Ready?

[LittleRed30 38]

Surgery was yesterday. Removed band and revised to gastric seeve. Had to do a hernia/hole repair on my diaphram/esoghus. Sore but no real pain. horriable backache. Drinking Water since yesterday hoping to move to Protein later today. Dr said 2 to 4 weeks liquids because of higher risk of leak but 4 weeks is out of danger zone. Ohh and minimal scar tissue after 3 years out. He was impressed.

Nap time.

Hey fellow sleevers for today, WE MADE IT! Mine was a total success. When HUH says 745 thats what they mean. I arrived at 6 am did my last little paper work, Iv started and @7 i was on ly way back to OR. Spoke with a lot of doctors about anesthesia then my surgeoen, Dr. Tran came asked if I had any last questions, then askwd if we could say a prayer. WOW, I was so impressed with his bedside manner, actually all of them. I wasn't nervous at all, they made me feel safe. In about 5 minutes I was in lalaland! Then the next thing I knew I was in recovery, just a little nausea and very little pain. By noon I was in my room. Now i am just waiting to have foley taken out and start walking. As off right now no nausea and I have hit my PCA (pain med) twice. I hope to have thia continued success for myself and everyone else, we made it!!

Glad to hear all went well for you, my surgery went ok for me as well although the incisions are very painful especially on my left side - I also had a hiated hernia that Dr Veninga had to repair... I've had no nausea though so thank God for that ... They just gave me pain meds for the stomach pains so it's making me very sleepy but judged to give you all an update.... Hope everyone's from the 12th went great & anyone today... God bless
