2hours and 45 minutes and I will be in surgery!!!!!! So scared!!!!

[natynat22 95]

Home and feeling so much better!!! I must say....not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be!!! Ivan having slight pain but its more of a discomfort then anything!!!

[FibroDiva 60]

I'm finally home. Got out August 05. I had problems swallowing and my creatin levels went waaaay down. I've been home for 24 hours and my legs are swelling. So now I'm calling the doctor.

Gotta say, once a couple of issues were addressed:

1. removing the drain tube
   
2. turning the air conditioner off [i have Fibromyalgia]
   
3. Figuring out how to take my crushable meds despite the taste.
   

The pain is bearable. I have severe Fibromyalgia so I live with excruciating pain every day.

I had a really rough week. I'm finally beginning to feel better. I had a lot of chest pain, pressure and shortness of breath. This was mostly due to the unexpected hernia repair. Today I finally felt strong enough to get out. I walked the aisles at Target just to get some exercise. It's just too hot outside to go walking. Glad to hear my "sleeve sisters" are doing well. Let's all just stay in touch.

In the beginning I had that problem it's so frustrating when you know you have to eat

[Eskimo_kisses4u 9]

Hope you gals are ok

[FibroDiva 60]

[Eskimo_kisses4u 9]

@fibrodiva how was it are you eating mushy foods yet

[TARPHR 29]

My hubby and I are August 1st sleevers. I'm down 21 from pre op and hubby is down almost 40!

Mushy foods start tomorrow but we've already had a scrambled egg and over cooked noodles.

Amazed that I can eat such a small amount and be full!!
