Any February 2014 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Alright kids. To the fun part we go! I am being driven to the ER. Woke up with excruciating pain in my left side (lung) and warm pain in my calf. Because I was so out of it the first 24 hours after surgery I barely got up to pee. So we are ruling out a blood clot this fine Sunday morning. I will update you when I have something else to add. Wish me luck! Lol.

Hmm ok, interesting, I think I left my nose in surgery :)

Do you sleep as much as you once did?

Okay. Back home. They did all kinds of blood tests and an ultrasound. They said my clotting risk is high but that it could be just from surgery. They said to be safe I need to follow up with my primary care doc tomorrow and have another round of blood work and ultrasound done at the end of the week. So for now, I'm okay. Just super tired and ready to pass out!

That pain from coughing can be nasty. That may be what caused my pain in my ribs. I originally thought it was trapped gas. I only worried about a possible clot after the calf pain started. I am not having a terrible recovery, however this is the toughest time I have bad recovering from an operation. This is the third time many of my incisions were used for a laparoscopic procedure and I had so much trouble waking up from anesthesia that its just been harder than I'm used to.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
