VSG Day 2

Jan 20, 2012

Hi everyone.  I just got home from the hospital. I had my sleeve surgery on Monday January 16th and stayed in the Hospital on Monday, Tuesday and all day Wednesday.

Everything went good with the surgery and I even got some nice pictures of my new sleeve. For me the hardest part of this was the drain tube and the pain from that drain was so excruciating for me. The pain was on one side and went up to my shoulder. OUCH did that hurt. But once they took that drain out I felt so much better, what relief. I was nauseous on the second day and ended up throwing up once, I think part of that was from having to drink that stuff for the leak test. They took good care of me though with some very helpful meds for the pain and nausea. :)

Today I feel great, a little tender in the tummy area but I feel so good, especially since they took out that drain. Wow, all these months waiting for this day and it’s done. When I started coming out from surgery I remember the first thing I said was is this for real or a dream and they are like this is real :) Now I’m officially on the loser bench.

Have a great day...
Teresa
