Sleeved!
Had my surgery yesterday morning. My surgeon said there was less scar tissue than he thought. So, it went well. I do feel better without the band.
Since I live so far away from my doc, he is keeping me tonight, also. I passed the leak test and have been sipping on water. I was given some broth and hot tea, but it just wasn't appealing. Sf jello and water it is! Ha ha. I did have some nausea last night, and dry heaved some....but, for the most part I am feeling well.
Thanks for all of the well wishes and support!

Good luck also on your journey. I recently went to Mexico and it was the best decision I have ever made. The cost is so much less that in the US and the care that I received was was above what I have ever gotten here in the US. I had Dr. Alvarez. He and his team are absolutely amazing and I would recommend him any day over and US doctor.
