IT IS NOW TWO WEEKS POSTOP. I AM STILL HURTING A LOT. I HAD TO BE COMPLETELY OPENED UP INSTEAD OF THE LAPROSCOPIC VERSION DUE TO DEVELOPING A CO2 EMBOLISM DURING SURGERY. IT WAS A FREAK THING BUT REQUIRED THEM TO OPEN ME UP AND LOOK FOR ANY POSSIBLE BLEEDERS SINCE THE SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME. I AM DOING VERY WELL AND HOPEFULLY NEXT WEEK I WILL GET THESE 32 STAPLES OUT!! :cry
OTHER THAN SOME PAIN I FEEL REALLY GOOD THOUGH AND AM LOOKING FORWARD TO GETTING STARTED. I CERTAINLY FEEL BETTER THAN WHEN I WOKE UP IN THE HOSPITAL IN EXCRUTIATING PAIN!!!!:omg:
DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF SWELLING, DR. WEBB SAID THAT HE DIDN'T PUT ANY FLUID INTO MY BAND AT SURGERY (NORMALL HE DOES) BUT THAT HE PROBABLY WILL WHEN I GET MY STAPLES OUT.
