Do I Look Skinnier Yet?

I AM SLEEVED!!

So I was here at 6:00 am this morning. Went in for surgery at 7:30 and woke up SLEEVED about 10:30. My surgeon came in just a bit ago and said my stomach wall wasn't too thick from the band. He also said I will be on Clear liquids about 2 weeks and not to push it because the area of the stomach at the top where the band was will end a little more time. I'm not In too much pain, no nausea.

I guess that $130 pill worked. And I AM SLEEVED!

Congrats! But the 130 dollars ummmm what's that about? No one told me of that as of yet. But then again I haven't got my dates as of yet, I am getting the sleeve too.

Before surgery my doctor called in a prescription for some nausea medicine to be taken the night before surgery. When I went to pick it up the pharmacist said $50.00. Wow! I said how much is it before insurance and he said $130.00.....When I opened it up to take it that night it was just one pill!! Amend was the name of it....But I haven't had any nausea so I would buy it again.

Hmm, now you have me wondering. My surgeon called in some meds for me too. Anti nausea, acid reflux, and stool softener. I thought they were all for after the surgery, but I wonder if I'm supposed to take the anti nausea one beforehand. My surgery is Wednesday. I guess I better get on that!

Yes, I would find out...You will probably want to pick them up before surgery anyway because you won't want to do it on the way home from the hospital. I took that pill the night before and they gave me IV anti nausea and a patch behind my ear at the hospital before surgery.....covered all my bases...I hate to be nauseous! My doctor didn't send me home with any anti nausea meds though....he said after the first couple of days it's not such an issue, and it hasn't been.
