  1. This is something I have contemplated for a long time, but I literally made the decision and called and scheduled it! Lol! I did it so I wouldn't have to deal with anxiety, etc, I tend to overthink everything. ???? Good luck to you girls!! I'm excited but a little scared myself!

    Post-op Nausea

    I am so worried about this! I do well with Zofran ODT (it dissolves in your mouth). I am seriously considering bringing this with me as it doesn't cause drowsiness like phenergan. I doubt it's something they give you because it's a bit pricey. I have trouble with nausea after surgery anyway... I sure do hope you are feeling better soon. Bless your heart, nausea is NO FUN!!!

    Will I feel like sightseeing?

    By the way... I'm thinking of bringing some zofran ODT with me! I have trouble with nausea after anesthesia anyway. I don't wanna deal with that! And phenergan knocks me OUT. Anyone else bring meds from home to help? I'm a RN so I feel comfortable self medicating... Just don't wanna experience horrible nausea & vomiting!

    Will I feel like sightseeing?

    I wouldn't go so far as to say it was EASY! Lol!!! That was ROUGH... Worth it, of course, but just saying.... ROUGH! Every time I coughed or sneezed I had horrible muscle spasms due to the muscle repair (OUCH!) The morning after I literally could not believe they didn't keep me in the hospital. Walking was INCREDIBLY painful. I went like 6 feet and was like um, yeah, let's get back in bed. ???? Thanks for the feedback! I think I'll get a hotel with a view near Balboa Park or something like that. ???????? if I don't feel like it, then at least I'll have a pretty view ????

    Will I feel like sightseeing?

    Oh goodness.... yikes! Now I'm kinda worried. I'm going back to work a week later.... but I had a "mommy makeover" before & was back to work in a week... drains & all! I consider myself a tough bird but sounds like I'm underestimating the recovery time
  7. Awesome! I am just getting the hang of this forum, so glad I found it. I have soooo many questions and concerns!
  8. My head is spinning reading all this preop information. Since I am having to pay for the procedure out of pocket, I am hoping you all have some suggestions for cheaper Vitamins, shakes, etc. The site they're recommending to me is outrageous (in my opinion) Thanks!

    Anxiety July Sleevers!

    I'm nervous and overwhelmed but so excited! I'm feeling like I need a list or something... Or maybe a class! Lol! So much information ???? July 28th for me!
  10. July 28th for me! Feeling overwhelmed but excited ????
  11. I think lots of times we use alcohol as a way to escape, and relax when we are uptight about things etc.... You just might find that you don't need it as much when you feel confident and sexy! Good luck! ????
