Didn't arrive home until 2am this morning due to delays in Atlanta. Was exhausted to say the least. Was able to sleep for about five hours. I am now able to sleep comfortably on my side. Biggest difficulty I am having is getting the awful tape off of my skin. I am tired of picking at it in the shower. As far as eating, I was able to sip a little broth, some grape juice, Gatorade and orange jello. I find that the broth makes me burp much more than anything else. No way am I consuming the recommended

Actually slept quite a bit last night. This morning I was taken to get X-ray of my stomach. A bottle of purple prep was brought to my room the night before and I I began drinking at 6am. I was driven to the location for X-ray and had to drink another clear liquid while the X-ray was taken. After that the afternoon was free to do whatever we liked. We all spent a good amount of time beside the pool. This afternoon my drain and IV were removed. Feeling really good! I have bonded with my fellow sleeves

Dr. Hernandez came in to check on me this morning. Was given the medications that I am to take after returning home. Removed the tubing from the IV and released me at 8am. Back at the hotel, we were moved from the second floor to the first floor. Was told to shower and to remove the bandages while in the shower. Called the nurse after my shower to have the bandages put back on. Nurse hooked up one bag of fluid to run through. After it was finished (about 20 minutes), another nurse came and removed

The gas finally started moving around last night which was uncomfortable. Room was very cold. I suggest you bring a small blanket with you.
Finally received a small bottle of water this morning to sip. Should be returning to the hotel this morning.
I would have to say that I was awake every hour last night but from reading others post, the first night is worse.

This lady has been sleeved! As promised, I will fill everyone in on the details. If you don't care about details, please just bypass my post.
Was picked up at the hotel at 6:40 this morning and driven the two blocks to the hospital. Shortly after arriving, a nurse came in and prepared me for surgery by wrapping my legs and starting my IV. Dr. Almanza came in and explained the surgery to us. His English is quite good. He was followed by Dr. Hernandez who came in to meet us. Dr. Hernandez's
