I really wish I never had the sleeve. I am in so much pain. I ended up going to the hospital yesterday and the doctor had nothing to say what was wrong. I'm absolutely miserable and the sight of food makes me want to puke. I'm 6 weeks out and I feel like death. This is the worst thing I've ever done to myself and I would never recommend this surgery to anyone. If this pain doesn't go away soon I don't know what I'll do.

They did a bunch of tests. I physically cannot eat at all. My pain is in my abdomen, and I feel nauseous all the time! I don't have a leak and they checked if it was my gallbladder. I don't know how much longer I can feel like this.. It's unbearable

Hopefully the tests will come back with some answers. You can't carry on like that!

Have you had any post op visits?

This is why I'm afraid to travel anywhere to get surgery for fear that if I have complications my team won't be near.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
