Had my sleeve done yesterday!

Just sending out an update letting everyone know that things are well. The worst incision pain is the one where they pulled the stomach through. I got up and walked within 30 minutes after I left PACU. Slowly, but I walked! Honestly, the pain isn't too bad, but the IV pain meds handle it if it starts to hurt. So far, so good!

Congratulations to you - Well done! I'm so envious as you are now on the other side - and so very glad to hear your surgery went well :-)

Look forward to your updates, I'll be sharing mine after the 14th yiiiikes :-)

It'll be here before you know it!! But I know it seems to take forever as you look at that calendar counting down the days! Best of luck to you and feel free to ask if you think of something that you haven't found here yet.

Ladybug, you might not want to be where I am this exact minute, LOL. I currently have a pounding headache, am itching to death from all of the meds I've been on, and my incisions are burning like crazy! But honestly, these are all just minor annoyances and nothing that I can't deal with. This surgery really has been a breeze so far. Now I'm just starting to wonder what size sleeve he gave me, because it seems like things may go down a little too easy for having just been sleeved two days ago. Try not to worry. The nerves really got to me the two days prior to my surgery thinking all of the "what ifs". I just turned it over to God and knew that he would see me through this. Take care, and stay in touch once it's your turn.
