Sleeved today March 18

This is my 1st post-op post!!! So far so good. Surgery was completed about 10:00, and I was in my room by 11:00. Gas pain in chest and left shoulder at first, but it's pretty much gone by now. Some soreness on my left side where they pulled my tummy out, but no significant pain to speak of. 1st leak test went well - that stuff I had to drink was NASTY!!!

Now I'm working on my 1st cup of Water - best h2o I've ever had!!! No nausea or discomfort!!!!

That's great! Hope everything goes well. Just remember to try and move as much as possible the next few days to work out any gas bubbles left. Congrats!

CONGRATS! Just be careful hanging out on the interwebs - you're more affected by those surgery drugs than you may realize - I sent complete nonsense to my boss at work when I tried to let her know all went well
