I am home and sleeved!!!!
Well, just got home abouty 30 minutes ago and things went great. I am not having very much pain, so I am thankful for that. The surgery and hospital stay went very well. A lot of fantastic doctors and nurses. I even had a couple of the nurses want to hear all about the sleeve. They were very interested in it.
The only bump in the road for me was I had an allergic reaction to either the pain meds or the antibiotic. Nothing terrible, just very itchy!!! So they gave me benadryl through the IV and it would knock me out in no time. My daughters had a fun time with that one. It took me 20 minutes to go through 5 channels because I kept falling asleep after each channel. At least we had some good laughs.
I sure hope that everyone else who had surgery on Tuesday (or any day this week) goes as smooth for them. This all still seems a little surreal. I ACTUALLY HAVE MY SLEEVE!!!! Can't wait to see the numbers start falling!!!
Best Wishes,
Brenda

I was sleeved on Wednesday and got home yesterday too! I don't have much pain other than a little on the incision sites, but now I can't keep anything down. I am so nausous. When I try to drink water or anything it just comes back up. I'm trying not to get dehydrated! UGH! Have you had this problem Brenda?
