My Dr sent me home with nausea meds and 2 different antacids. Room temp drinks work best so far. Thanks for your support.

How do you know the difference while walking if you simply have a cramp in your calf muscle or a blood clot? I'm not in terrible pain but don't want it to get worst either.. Or do blood clots not show any early signs?

How long ago were you sleeve, here is a little test you can try pull your foot while you leg is str8 toward you. If you feel any pain in your calf it is possible. But if you are feeling pain in your I wuld call your doc. Alos if it feels extrmemly warm and hot to touch call your doctor, if you see a red line call your Doctor. I would call your Doctor. Don't wait

No chances. Go to ER. I called 911 this morning because of chest pain I though was a blood clots on my lung. Thank goodness it was nothing but no chances on your life.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
