Tomorrow morning 8am, I report for my sleeve! I am scared and excited and feel kind of sick all at the same time! Any last minute advice? Things I need for the hospital stay, or immediately after coming home? I would appreciate any help any of you can give!

I asked about that at my surgeons office and they told me not to bother because the gas is not in the intestinal tract! Did they really help you? Oh man, it's kind of late to get them now. Ugh! Thanks for the info!

Relax and let them take care of you. :)  Stay ahead of any pain by taking the meds when offered instead of waiting to see if you need it - at least for the first few days.  Just rest, sip-sip-sip, walk, sip-sip-sip (over and over).  I had a really easy time, so hopefully you will as well.  Good luck!
