Had a Sleeve Gastrectomy on Monday at UCLA with Dr. Chen. He and the staff at UCLA were awesome. They listened to me and allowed me to stay an extra day because I felt horrible and had a long drive home. Spending the extra night got me through the most severe pain and on a manageable pain and nausea program. I’m home now and trying to follow my post-op instructions to the T. I pray my recovery continues in the right direction.
