Update
Hi,
Well so far I'm 4 days post opt! Still really sore..my back, shoulders, ribs, neck and tail bone ( i think from laying on the OR table for hours. First few days really sucked, I couldn't get much if any fluids in at all. The doctor did the sleeve and also fixed the whole in my chest cavity and got my stomach back down and he also found a hiatal hernia that he fixed. Over all things are slowly improving!! Now I'm dealing with acid relux, waiting on the nurse to call to see what I can do about it....well just thought I'd update....good luck to the up and coming surgeries
