LynnD 7 Posted March 25, 2013 Don't be been under many times and they know what they are doing if u have faith in your drs not reason to be scared. Thanks a lot for the reassurance! Really appreciate it! I'm assuming you're already sleeved? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LynnD 7 Posted March 25, 2013 Great! Glad everything went well they plan to remove my gallbladder as well. They said that this would make the surgery longer. Any regrets? please say no - haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izuri 428 Posted March 25, 2013 I was SO scared of the anesthesia pre-op. I had never had any kind of surgery and never had been put under. They give you a sedative before they wheel you into the operating room and that sure made me not give a hoot =) Everything went well and I don't regret it a single bit. A ton of people get anesthesia every day and the vast majority have very few issues - I bet yours is gonna go great and you'll get to tell everyone what a relief it was once it's over. Good luck, it will be so worth it. 1 LynnD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandy88 151 Posted March 25, 2013 No regrets, I went in at 730 and woke up around 11. My doctor said on 45 on sleeve and 1hr and half on gallbladder. I am happy with my choice so far down 22.2 lbs and beside soreness in one spot I am healing well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
srpiccollo 19 Posted March 26, 2013 I have been under 4 times and it is a breeze. I am also in the medical field and gave seen it done hundreds of times so that helps. The problems with being under are very rare. We have several things in place just in case something does happen but I have been doing this 12 years and never seen anything worse than vomiting after waking up in the post op room from being under.
