Yesterday was the day. I did it, I got banded. I was terrified, kept going over all the things in my mind that could go wrong, worried I wouldnt wake up etc. So 6 am I wake up with a migraine, not a head ache but a full blown think I am going to die migraine. Did not start well. was at the hospital by 7, gave my urine sample, ekg, blood work (again) and got hooked up to iv. I am very sore today feeling weak but honestly cant believe how good I feel considering what i went thru yesterday. The worst part of it all was the migraine that I woke up with and kept till I took excedrin migraine today. Lortabs wernt even touching it. We were home by 4:30 and other than being sore, gassy and starved to death, I am doing great. Wish I was able to eat real food. Cant tell what is gas and how much is hunger. It hurts tho. The liquids are not doing the trick, I am so grateful this is behind me. TIme to start my new life, God is so good.Time for my meds and a nap. There is no bigger wuss in the world than me and I tell you this is not NEAR as rough as I thought it would be. I could eat a horse but all is good. till next time, God bless:rolleyes:
