Getting sleeved on the 15th

[jandrfprever32 6]

Hi! My name is Rebecca, and I'm 23 years old and my HW was 224. I'm two days Pre-op and as of this morning weighing 213. All I seem to be able to think about is the Surgery. I've never had any kind of surgery before so I'm starting to get really nervous . I'm just wondering if there is anyone else here in the same boat as me?

I am in the same boat, getting sleeved this Wednesday the 15 too! it is ALL I can think about.

Here's the good news. While I'm not in the same boat (being a guy old enough to be your dad OR granddad!), I have had multiple surgeries.

You have a great MD/surgeon (I assume). You are going to a great hospital with staff who know what they are doing...

So, they will prepare you, might been a special wash, maybe some 'relax me' medication, and an IV for fluids. You'll get to wear a Very Stylish gown that exposes you God and country (and you will not care). You'll chat with the anesthesiologist. They'll roll you into the OR and everyone will look like the long ranger (masks all around).

After some conversation, they'll ask if you are ready, and they YOU'll ask when do we begin, and the nurse will say, we're all over, you did just fine.

Now there will likely be some discomfort as you heal, but the staff will help. And YOU will help too by walking as much as you can!

Have fun. This is the start of your adventure.
