    Default Well I'm finally sleeved but had a rough time.....

    Got my sleeve and all went well. Doc found a large hialtel hernia that he repaired. Was on diladed all day along with nasea medication. Yesterday I was so sick dry heaving they tried 4 different medications throught the day. I couldn't even keep an ice chip down. About 8pm they finally gave me phenergan and demmerol and I slept for abt 4 hours or so. Woke up this morning and felt so much better. Bad news is I was supposed to go home today but since I hadn't taken anything by mouth I have to stay another day. Guess it could've been worse. Needless to say I have no gas pains not even sure if he feeled my with air or not. Thanks for all of the well wishes. Now I begin my new life!!!!!!
