Hey everyone I am still in the hospital. I have only a little pains in my belly. Not much. Can't go pee at all after they took that thing out off me! My nurse is contacting them to see what I should do!

I just had my surgery last night and not sleeping to great. Lol.

Hey everyone. I am doing really well. Don't really have much pain in my belly. My back just hurts from laying there for 2 hours. Lol. My surgery was so much later in the day. It sucked but I am good to go now!

That's good to know! My surgery is today and next month I am going in about birth control. So I will make sure I do my research first!

My surgery is on Friday. What should I pack for my stay in the hospital? I never had surgery before or had to stay at a hospital before.

Thank you everyone!

Why shouldn't you take bc pills after surgery? I was told you after to wait a month.

I was told 2 days. I have surgery on Friday and home Sunday. But things always change!

Thank you! Will keep you all posted! My arrival time is 12:45pm.

Thank you!!!

Can I bring my own pjs to wear? Or do I have to wear their stuff?

Cost was on the list you gave me.

Cost?

Worm.. When i was at my pre-op with our surgeon she said yes to flintstones. I told her that I have read otherwise. She didn't agree much.

My surgery is on Friday! Cleaning like crazy tonight! Last day of work is tomorrow! I can't wait to start my new life. My family is all there for me. My boyfriend on the other hand hates the idea of it and is all for the natural way. We have been together for 5 years. I have worked my butt off for years. The natural way isn't working for me! I am doing what I feel is the best thing for me! I will keep everyone updated! Stephanie

I am in Pittsburgh, PA and my surgery is Friday. I hope they do not reschedule.

I am 23. I am having my surgery on Nov. 2nd. I have had my pcp say she would not recommend the surgery to someone my age. But my thing is that she or anyone else has the seen the daily problems that you go through and the many failed attempts at losing weight. Why would I wait till I am older to have the surgery done. I tried hard when I was younger to lose weight. It didn't happen. And it will get harder with the years. What's wrong with making the change while your young and then you will be able to live your life to the fullest. There are so many people that say they wish they would have done this years ago. And that is what we are doing. You know you. No one knows you better than you know yourself. Never let anyone tell you otherwise. You do want you feel is the best thing for you. That is what I am doing. I am getting my life, health, and body where it needs to be so I can live a long strong life!

My doctor is Carol McCloskey at Magee.

November 2nd is my date. I am in Pittsburgh, PA. I am very excited to start my new life!

I have not had the surgery yet but I had this problem when I was in my teens. I went to the doctor and had blood work done and I found out that I had high prolactin levels which has to do with my hormones.

I am a new member. My special date is November 2nd and I can not be more excited. I am trying to get ready the best I can. I go in on October 16th to get done everything I need to before the big day. Does anyone have any good advice to help me for the few weeks before and after?
