Newly sleeved
Hi all,
I just wanted to report that I had the sleeve on Monday was dishcharged yesterday and am at home! I spent two days on clear fluids. Day one did not go well and for a variety of reasons (mostly due to light headedness and nausea) and stayed an extra day. I spent a good part of yesterday at home but I decided to stick with clear liquids for the day because I really didn't get anywhere near my fluid goals the day before.
Today, I am on full liquids and things are going well, but I never have been suck a clock watcher in my life so I can keep my pace up!
Things have not been as smooth as I hoped but I think I am making good progress and I am already seeing the benefits because I am taking a lot less medicine and my numbers have been fine so far.
