Recovery Going Too Well....paranoia?

[CCCross 31]

I was sleeved on October 6th in Mexico and recovery has gone exceptionally well. Only naseau (sp) was the day after surgery and while I was very inflammed and couldn't even get the leak test stuff down the first time, I have had no pain and only slimmed once (dang mexican horse pills). I get in about 80+ ounces of liquid and about 65 grams of Protein. I didn't have my passport when crossing the border and we didn't even have to go to second inspection! I have energy and feel better than I have in months. I just keep having the feeling of "when will the other shoe drop"? "This is too good to be true". I know I'm only 8 days out and leaks/strictures/infection and stuff can still happen and I keep thinking, "when will Murphy's Law rear its ugly head"? I'm feeling like a paranoid lunatic. I don't have insurance to cover any complications and had to this surgery mostly because I cannot seem to get insurance with all my pre-existing conditions and BMI for less than $700 a month with a $2500 deductible. The list of off the wall and rare crap I've had is astonishing.

Anyone else feel this way? For those who have had complications, when did things start to go down hill?

*My heart goes out to those who are having serious complications and a tough recovery road. I mean in no way to flaunt how well I'm feeling and please don't take this offensively.

I felt the same way!!! LOL if we are paranoid lunatics, at least we are not alone hahahaha

I was sleeved on 9-14-12 and I haven't had ANY pain or nausea or complication. (well actually immediately after I woke up from surgery I was dry heaving but that happens to me EVERY time I have anesthesia and it's a side effect) My energy level was WAY better starting about day 3.. I'm not hungry but I'm able to get in about 60 grams Protein and 55-80 oz. water/day. I was back at work and able to work 13 hour shifts on my feet (I'm a nurse in a very busy hospital OR) after a week off. I am so so so grateful that I've had such a great recovery so far.

I DID spend the first week or two wondering when the other shoe was gonna drop but now I'm just enjoying each day as it comes and I pray that I do not get any complications down the road. I also feel horrible for those who have had a difficult recovery from surgery or complications, wouldn't wish that on anyone!!!!
