kw2walker 211 Posted July 24, 2013 Hey guys! I was finally sleeved yesterday morning. My surgeon told me everything was perfect. The anesthesia and morphine had me nauseous as hell' date=' but I'm so much better now. Finally up and walking. I barely used the pain killer for my belly, just for my shoulder from the gas. Trying to eat more or rather drink more, but this hospital food blows. Sucralose all over the place bleh. Other than that I'm doing well. Thanks for all of your well wishes. Congrats to my fellow July 22 sleevers, and good luck to all future sleevers. It will be over before u know it.[/quote'] Wonderful you are doing well. I stopped my morphine. It made me so sick. I could not even walk well it had me loopy. Buy I stopped and took off after that. I can do Water well everything else hurts. But I'll keep trying. Continued success on your journey.

Kieshart 73 Posted July 24, 2013 Dr. Ariel Ortiz is in the building! Yes, I'm excited folks. After reading the story about how I wouldn't see him, (LIE), he came to my room as soon as I sat in bed. We talked for about 30 minutes and he has me super excited about this journey! I love this place. The OCC ROCKS! For those who don't know, I am in TJ and really only know it because I had to cross the border. Go figure. This place is like a little spa! 2 nmck and moonlitestarbrite reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
