I was afraid the hospital was calling me to cancel, but it was scheduling my preop labs and COVID test. Feeling very nervous. Oh God, I never thought of that, where are you, I’m in uk, so fingers crossed for all of us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sue swapping over 25 Posted August 8, 2021 Oh I pray not another lockdown, not looking like it here in London tbh, over here it’s mainly the teens and early 20 year old getting it, and they started giving the vaccine to the 16 year olds now is it bad in Texas ? I just want to get this op done and move on, popping all my Vitamins daily and purchased little pots to make Soup !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope everyone is doing well pre op and post op. I’m still in major pain 3 days after..one specific incision is hurting a lot, but I’ve finally starting taking in more Protein Shakes and some sherbet etc. lmk how you guys are doing ! august 2nd- I haven’t hit my Water intake yet since being home. I either hit my Protein or come very very close. Pain is ok… there’s a pulling in my stomach of course when I stand and do things. I have one incision that has been giving me heck since surgery (it’s the most painful and most tender but gets better by the day). It’s my largest one. also does anyone experience a squeezing feeling? The squeezing is stronger in the middle of the night so I wake up and start sipping water.

Three bunny mom 10 Posted August 9, 2021 Hi, I am scheduled August 23, 2021 for gastric sleeve surgery. I’m both scared and excited! I had Lap Band surgery in 2009 and lost 80lbs. I felt great and I loved the way I looked. A few months back I had the Lap Band removed and over the past several years I’ve put on 50lbs between not going to the gym during COVID-19 and the extra weight makes it difficult to get around. However I was just reading the thread on what you are looking forward to most after your surgery and I must say I was very encouraged by what I read! 2 ColieCallwell and phenomenally_me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
