Finally sleeved!



Recommended Posts

It's been just over 24 hours. No gas pain, no nausea. I'm off the IV and onto paracetamol and ibuprofen. Only issues are tiredness and some pain at the main incision.I should be right to go home tomorrow if I can get a litre of fluids today.

How are my fellow 8th December sleevers going? Hope everyone is doing well!

I just got sleeved yesterday, came home today around noon. Still tired and in some pain/discomfort. Finding a comfortable sleeping position is hard at this moment.

I visited one of our friends from here! She got sleeved yesterday at 130 pm mountain and is doing GREAT! No pain and walking and sitting up and chatting. She said she is just tired.

It sure made me feel better about my 12/28 surgery! The stitches were so much smaller than I thought. She got to go home today at 4 pm.

Got sleeved at 7 this morning. Was home by 4 this afternoon. Have a drain tube still in me but go to dr in the morning to get removed. Pain on right incision which must have been the major incision. Been chewing ice, keeping an ice pack on, walking laps in the house and taking deep breaths. Only nauseated once with first liquid pain med in hospital. All is good so far, hope tonight goes well. Just took a pain pill in case I will need it while sleeping. Lost 12.4 lbs in my one week of pre diet ????. Best of wishes to today's sleevers!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
