Got sleeved on Monday. Monday was kind of tough. Tougher than I anticipated.  Had a mini panic attack....with the IV, oxygen and those things that squeeze your legs I felt closed in or claustrophobic. Kind of flipped out!  They gave me adavan which helped. They let me go home yesterday which was great. Was great to sleep in my own bed. Getting fluids in today. Threw up a little but moving forward. Thanks.

I am worried about that too because I have anxiety and do get panic attacks.  I am just in the beginning stages, but my biggest fear is losing it as soon as I wake up from the surgery...

YAY!!!  Those leg squeezing things are annoying, but it's better than getting a blood clot!
