Hello All,

I made it through. Had my surgery on Thursday was suppose to be at 7:30 but wasn't unril 9:30. Dr. Linn said surgery went really well. I just got home from the hospital and my stomach feels so full or bloated. I had to spend 2 nights in ICU because I lost alot of blood and my bp and heart rate were out of control for a minute. My menses is on very heavy. Was told that it was normal because of the surgery. I still have dranaige from my stomach. Hope is goes away soon.

I feel ok, didn't have alot of pain but felt like the nurses were forcing me to use the morphine button.

Dr. Lin is awesome he travels everywhere with his med students. The care in ICU was very good but it was the pits on the bariatric unit.
