How disappointing for you.but it was the right thing to do at the time. Good luck with your next step.

So after two weeks of liquid diet' date=' prepping and planning for support and care for myself and my kids, as well as prepping myself mentally for this surgery, I woke up from anesthesia with no sleeve.

They found a tumor in the base of my stomach. I have to see a gastroenterologist and have a biopsy done. Once everything is ok and the tumor is removed I can proceed with the sleeve.

I'm sad, disappointed. I cried so much in the hospital, the nurses were so nice to me.

Good news is the surgeon said that from the look of it, it looks benign. Im calling the specialist tomorrow to see how soon they can get me in. Hoping for the best![/quote']

I can imagine how you felt. It takes so much to get ready. However, thank God they are going to take care of the tumor and consider your sleeve later. I had surgery date of Feb. 7 but got blood lots in my lungs. Had to wait a minimum of 6 mos to be considered again. I have an October 22 date. Looking forward to get it done.
