Linda Cooney 34 Posted December 26, 2018 My journey has been easy. I woke up from surgery pain free and have remained that way. In addition to no surgery pain, my slight incontinance is gone, I’m off most meds, including all pain pills, and have lost 35 pounds. My neuropathy is slowly lessening. I still need both knees replaced, but am currently almost arthritis pain free. I resolved my nausea with bariatric Vitamins with a Tespo machine. I know everyone doesn’t have the same experience, but I think that with mental and emotional preparedness, that everyone can. Life is what you make of it and sometimes, you have to just take comfort in half a glass, fluff out your tutu and dance on. Good luck everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
