@@lovingme1 - Dr. Williams is the bomb.com! I had the easiest time of it with him. Walked into the OR, surgery went smoothly, no pain, gas, nausea or vomiting. Staff at UPenn was very nice and courteous. I also like that he starts you on colace and omeprazole in the hospital. As long as you take you meds and drink your Water, you should have issues with Constipation or acid.

If you haven't already, join a gym or at least start walking 30+ minutes a day. It will make recovery that much easier.

Was sleeved March 18 at Lehigh Valley Hospital, Dr. Boorse. I was very satisfied, surgery went well, very little pain, infact did not take any pain meds when I got home the next day or any days after. I have had no complications, the only issue I had was an allergic reaction to medical glue and something else used on the surgery site. Had a bad rash, very sensitive skin, I usually would take Prednisone to clear it up, but Dr.'s office did not advise using it at this point in time. Thankfully it is almost gone!
