how long is the Gastric Sleeve surgery ?



Recommended Posts

mine was 1:20, recovery room was full so they carted me over to the pre-op area. Had to wait there for 3+ hours until a room was ready. They cranked up my morphine a bit too much and I was a zombie the entire day of surgery. Once they dialed it back down to human levels, I felt great. 2 night stay for me. 12 days post-op and I gotta say that I feel about 90% of "normal", but 28lbs lighter!

I was in for about three hours but I had issues and they had to shock my heart twice during surgery. I am just glad I woke up.
