Hey Shelli, i agree. I will b at a mtf, which i pray will b end of oct, but i wonder as well bc the reason its takn me from june of this yr up until now, is bc of the furlow (sp) at least thats what the nut said. Now that ive been stalled by the nut for my 3rd visit to her, now i have to deal w this frkn shut down. Makes me wonder if som1's trying to tell me somthn, geesh!!! gl to u. I go c surgeon on the 11th, i ll ask him for sure:/ Prayerfully we wont get affected or theyll opn bck up soon. Again, gl2u!

Well I'm not for sure if this helps, but I just had mine done on Oct 2 at fort Campbell. They haven't stopped the surgeries there the nurse said. Not for sure what any other bases are doing, but I was so pleased with my entire processes. My doctor was amazing! Best of luck!

Update: I had my sleeve done thursday morning! Very hard at first lots of pain meds:) second say I got a fever and so much pain so here I am another night. So far everything is ok. I expected to feel very ful after fews sips of liquid but instaed I get pain and hiccups. Wondering if these things are normal?
