Day 2 Post Op

Oct 03, 2012

 Well I had it done.  I was sleeved yesterday around 12:30.  Being wheeled into surgery was one of the most scary moments in my life.  The next thing I know I was waking up with an elephant on my chest.  Ok so it wasn't an elephant but it was a whole lotta gas - I thought I was going to die.

Two hours after getting out of recovery I was walking the halls.  Everytime I had to use the restroom I would walk the halls and use my breathing machine.  By midnight I was feeling really good.

This morning I was more sore, not sure if it is the gas, muscular, or just the incisions.  Nothing intolerable.  Had my upper GI this morning and to be honest the stuff you have to drink tastes like thick nasty robitussin, but it felt nice to swallow something.

Test came back clear - no leaks. 

I was released and got home this afternoon.

So far - so good!
