NewSetOfCurves 1,553 Posted September 13, 2013 Good luck and I hope and pray for a speedy recovery! I know immediately after post-op that initial week or two are the hardest, but it's almost all down hill coasting with an occasional bump or two. You're going to love your sleeve girl!

Bethzy143 164 Posted September 13, 2013 Thanks everyone so i'm finally at home, such a great feeling to be back =) i am feeling pretty good i would say the pain i feel is mostly sore from the work done in my tummy and a little bit of chest pain but its because of gas. I had a little bit of a fever so they wouldn't let me go until today and until i could drink 2 shakes and Water at the hospital i barely have my voice, but i am moving around much better on my own =) 2 Therese Bell and ReadyNewM3 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
