I had sleeve on June 10th and all went pretty good-have lost a total of 49 lbs, had hiatal hernia repaired and 1st week and half was smooth sailing!!!! THEN BAM!!!! All Hell broke loose!!!  Started out with a lot of nausea  and as time went on started to feel like there was a lump at my chest just like I had swallowed something wrong and it was stuck there and just kept getting sicker and sicker. Early on had called my doc and he gave me zefron to take but just kept getting worse and worse until finally I was soo weak and sick my hubby had to call ambulance on July 4th (happy fourth)and took me to hosp where I sit tonight writing this. Ran a bunch of test and needless to say I have blood clots in my lungs and then they saw where 20 to 30% of my kidneys has failed-still running test on this( a lot of family with kidney problems) They said blood clots was due probably because of my bad knees(due for both knees to be replaced) and being sedatary before surgery and probably had clots in legs that moved up during surgery which is not uncommon but very serious if let go. Started me on blood thinner said lump I felt was due probably to clots!!!  But all in all finally feeling a little better and with GODS help and all my family and friends pulling for me I will overcome this obstacle in my journey to success!!! I STILL DO NOT REGRET ONE DAY HAVING MY SLEEVE AND LOOK FORWARD TO HAPPIER AND HEALTHIER DAYS!!! If it wasn't for the sleeve I would of never known all my other problems until it might have been to late!!
