I am schedule for march 26 and very very nervous I have two two year olds that on my brain I'm thinking the same thing but don't want to say out loud. I also had a ivc inserted inside of me so that scared me. I look forward of loosing the weight.. and begin to enjoy my new life. I am cranky and don't mean to. Not sure why I am

I was having crazy thoughts too probably until they said we are ready and off to the OR I went. I honestly dont remember anything after that until I woke up in recovery! It is so worth it! I was sleeved 3/19/13 and am so happy I did it. Stay strong!!

Thank you for that. I'm much better today, but I know once we get in the car for the drive to the hospital, I'll be a wreck again. Lol I know it's worth it.

I didn't talk much at all in the days leading up to my surgery. I was withdrawn, I'm not sure that it mattered. I was getting my mind right.

I was sleeved on 3-20 and woke up with the catheter in and it was removed the next day. It is a strange feeling when they pull it out but it's not painful at all. I also started my period the day before my surgery which was a major PITA! I told the anesthesiologist that I get nauseous really easy and was given extra meds for that plus a nausea patch behind my ear. They gave me something to relax me prior to taking me into the OR and I honestly don't remember anything after that (saying goodbye to my husband, being transferred to the OR or sounds from the OR). I've had a number of surgeries and I've still been awake when they take you into the OR and start strapping you down (which is much more scary for some reason). I will be honest and say the first 3 days were much harder than I expected and I couldn't even get a sip down until the 4th day. (I actually had to spend an extra night in the hospital for this very reason). Each day has been getting easier. I did have an allergic reaction to the adhesive that was used during the surgery which has been uncomfortable. You'll do fine. It helps to try and be as prepared as possible and try not to compare your surgery/recovery to anyone else. It was frustrating when I was feeling so bad to read about others that felt no pain or could swallow anything without any issue.
