Well I made it through, surgery on Tuesday and home Wednesday night. It has been a learning curve to find out how little of a sip I need to take. It seems like early in the day getting in my fluids and a little Protien is easier. By the time late afternoon rolls around I have to force myself to drink. I have some nausea and it's been challenging trying to figure out what my stomach will tolerate. I've been keeping up on all of my meds, I'm just guessing the his is all normal and trying to ride through the first week or two until I start to feel better.

Does anyone have any information on Dr. Abbas with University Hospitals in Cleveland? I have spent the last 7 months working with Dr. Khaitan from UH. I have been approved for the sleeve and was toldthat Nov. 15 would be my surgery date. Today I learned there has been a scheduling error and I would have to postpone my surgery a significant amount of time, which isn't really a possibility with my job, or switch to another UH bariatric surgeon, Dr. Abbas. 

I am kind of in panic mode trying to find out anything about Dr. Abbas and hoping to hear from some of his patients before I commit to switching suregons. This isn't the end of the world but it has been really frustrating and unsettling to think of switching doctors this late in the game. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
