hdd55146 29 Posted December 29, 2014 Good luck everyone! Anyone else not sleep last night? I didn't. I was like a kid waiting for Santa to come lol. My surgery isn't til 1030a today so needless to say I'm a ball of nerves and excitement. I've been awake and out of bed since 430a reminding myself not to eat or drink anything. Well not eating is fine now but it's the no drinking that I have to remember. I can't wait to hear from everyone to see how everything went. I'll be sure to share just as soon as I can too. For now, I'll continue my countdown. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Catcutie 64 Posted December 30, 2014 Hello 12/29 sleepers. How is everyone doing? I Got out of surgery 3pm. My surgeon found a hiatal hernia and repaired it while doing my sleeve. Had some nausea and dry heaves right after, but gone now. Waiting to have sleeve leak test this morning and if all goes well, be discharged today. Am walking, and sip, sip, siping and happy to be on the losers bench at last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adriane5Sims 24 Posted December 30, 2014 I can barely keep my eyes open. I guess it is the anesthesia and narcotics. Stomach is sore and I thought I was going to throw up earlier but so far i am ok. Just has upper gi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

queensleever05 22 Posted December 31, 2014 All done! I went into surfer at 2:30, but didn't wake up fully and get to my room until almost 7pm. The pain was crazy! But once the meds started to kick in, I was all good! I've been nauseous only while standing and then it goes away. I've been walking with all these lines everywhere and using my lung breather machine. Sipping on cranberry juice (diet) it tastes the best and I hated cranberry juice before. My tummy is a little sore but manageable.. And to think I was soo afraid of this part. Everything's going swell. But the person in the room down the hall doesn't seem to be having the best time ????. Sadly I hear them throwing up , heaving and crying. So sad. I'll be praying for them just like soo many prayed for me. In the meantime ladies and gents, make sure you sip it makes you feel better and walking is awesome, it helps gets some air moving and makes you feel better and use your breathing thingy. Hopefully I'll go home later today.. But question ... Is anyone getting discharged without a leak test?? That's freaking me out. Dr said I don't need one... Hmmm Anyway good luck all! Be blessed!
