hi everyone,

thanks for the well wishes.

my only problem was the nauseousness and i must tell you...it was bad. but this isnt due to the lapband. i always have this reaction to anesthesia

libra...were you nauseous. if so...what did you do?

everything else is fine.

shineon...where are you having spivak's surgery? i had it at park plaza medical center and when i tell you i couldnt have been taken better care of. and they were so nice to my sister in law.

i am originally from NY where some of the hospitals are "less then nice" so this was an additional benefit.

also to make you even more comfortable...a couple of the nurses had this operation and they used spivak. they said he was the best and very scientific.

so today i feel MUCH better. i am drinking tons and also doing the breathing exercise.

thanks again...:confused:

one last thing...i should have weaned myself off coffee before the operation. i had a little caffeine headache...so these are small, small issues...

They said I am scheduled at the Surgery center, I think that is the same as the park plaza. I have heard great things about the staff. Hopefully I have the same experience.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
