survivingsleever 33 Posted March 15, 2014 I was sleeved yesterday! I got called in two hours earlier due to a cancellation and went in solo due to my hubby being at work. I have super small veins, so imagine what 12 hrs prior to surgery with no liquids will do. I got poked a total of 6 times in attempts to insert an IV by a team of 5 different people. Surgery was quick, however I woke up whimpering like a dog...lol. The IV they managed to put in was small and limited my pain meds. Luckily for me they managed to give me liquid pain meds too. I slept all night like a baby and didn't have the strength to walk or eat. Today is a new day, with the help of nausea meds I was able to keep food down and walk the halls and walk in place in front of the tv in my room. Cheers to my start of a healthy life! 4 green*eyed*girl, AnnaMaria, CrazyJaney and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
