Dianne38 81 Posted December 24, 2012 I pretty much let my body tell me what to do. My gas pains were bad but never had any when I left the hospital. The first week I was wondering WHAT HAVE I DONE? Now Im pretty settled with my sleeve and I understand it has a mind of its own.....as long as I pay attention to its likes and dislikes....we're good!
