sleeve

hi guys . After 5 years I have finally been sleeved . Originally wanted the bypass but the surgeon on the day was not happy and suggested I go for the sleeve !. I just did it as I was so desperate for the op. Straight after the op, constant vomiting- I puked around 30 times in the space of...

Hello, I have just finished Tier 3 (NHS) and have just recieved a letter with a choice of hospitals.. as St. Richards in Chichester is closest to me I think that will be my choice.. has anybody else had their surgery there? If so could you tell me a little about the experience? Also what...

I'm really undecided on weather I want a bypass or sleeve.. any recommendations? any information would be hugely appreciated.

Hey, Has anyone had gastric sleeve surgery privately at spire roding hospital? And how was your experience getting it done from there.X Aliyah xo

Hi all, Extremely new here so hope I've posted in the right section. I have done tons of research and after realizing how long and tedious it will be having surgery on the NHS (at the Whittington London) I have bit the bullet and applied for a loan to go private with Prof Ameet Patel. I...

Hey! So I figure, this might be the one place I wont get judged, everywere else I ask and hope for some sort of encouragement I seem to get shot own by nasty hate and mysteriously upsetting anons. I am SO SO NERVOUS, because I feel like my age is going to pay a huge part in their decision...

Can anyone recommend a female surgeon for gastric sleeve? I'm quite prudish and though convinced I need the surgery I can't get past a man touching me.

Hi, I just had my sleeve done with Dr Cierny in Breclav on Tuesday. Since the surgery I haven't been able to stop crying and I'm wondering if this is normal. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm really scared that this might go on for a while and I will need further time off work. Thanks, Gaby

Catchy title eh?!? I am indulging myself with a pre op diary. I suggest potential readers skip this as it's bound to be either boring or a some what depressing series of moans by me as I crawl towards my sleeve! I am person with a facade of confidence which masks low self esteem and I use...

New in North Yorkshire Hi. I found this site by chance when Googling local hospitals for WLS. I went to see my GP today to find out if I was eligible to be referred for WLS, and I am. She was unsure if it would be Leeds or Bradford so I am looking to find people who have experiences at either...

I'm 8 weeks post op (sleeve) and my teeth still feel nearly as yucky as when I was on my pre op diet. It's like a coating on the inside, at least my breath is ok! It's driving me nuts, doesn't seem to matter how long and carefully I clean them, 10 mins later they feel yuk again. Is it just...

Hi!! I am having my sleeve op on 5th August so I am at the end of week 1 of my pre-op diet. On wednesday night I had a little slip up and had a few drinks.... How bad do you think this will be?! I have pretty much stuck to my diet and I have already lost quite a bit of weight... Scared I'm...

I don't know if it is because of my age or because I am in Australia and I can not find any one in Australia on this site but everyone ignores my posts. I had another user name named youngmumma and had 30 plus posts, with many views on each but no one responded to my questions. Here I go...
