I've been SLEEVED! Surgery is in the books

[Chris Lee 43]

Today was my vertical sleeve gastrectomy surgery. I have been out of the OR .for about 8 hours and doing remarkably well.

I am on a morphine PCA so my pain right now is at a zero, and well controlled. Not looking forward to having that discontinued in the morning and switching to oral meds but I know that's the next step. Still NPO except for mouth swabs no drinking or eating of any kind at this point.

Surgery was unremarkable with a good outcome no problems.

Anesthesia was a little rough coming out of as I was very very groggy and just wanted to keep sleeping. But after about two hours I finally was able to focus and carry on conversations.

I am now an official sleeve patient starting the next chapter of this journey!
