Hopefulin2021

Hi all had my surgery yesterday and I must say I am feeling pretty good. The gas pain is not as bad as I thought and other pain in pretty tolerable. I am so happy it is done and over with now I’m on the road to recovery. I am having a problem with peeing, they took the catheter out and want me to do it on my own but I can’t yet. Hopefully I will before I get discharged tomorrow. I’ve been sipping on water and jello so I hope that will help.

I am sorry to hear you’re going through all that. Being in the hospital is not fun especially on top of all that. I was in the hospital for two days and I was released yesterday. I hated being there with the blood work and the shots to prevent blood clots not to mention the IV fluids freaking burned it was not a good experience but i made it through and so will you. I have been frustrated a few times just cause of the pain and not being able to move a lot and I’m not used to this. My husband has been wonderful and I don’t know what I would’ve done without him being here. I hope you have a strong support system because you will definitely need it. Like they always say this too shall pass, you got this girl stay strong.

Hey today was better than yesterday because I am home. I was discharged yesterday after I was able to drink half of a protein shake. I was so glad go home omg. I’m still in some pain but nothing I can’t tolerate. Why are you still in the hospital? Is everything ok?

Yes I was finally able to go. I cannot wait to go home. I’ll be off work for 6 weeks yayyy.

I burped a little, finally peed, they gave me some medicine in my IV that hurt so freaking bad!!!

Thanks everyone!

I hope you feel better soon!!!

My surgery went really well, how is everyone who had surgery feeling?

about to get it done!

Thank you so much about to head to the hospital right now! Sending positive vibes out to the universe for all of us.

You have my prayers and all the good vibes you got this girl!

I posted a thread for March 2021 there are a lot of responses take a look. My surgery is tomorrow morning!

Good luck to you as well we got this !!

I have to be at the hospital by 8am so my surgery will probably be around 10 am. I’m still in the OMG phase lol

Congratulations get well soon I’ll be doing the same thing tomorrow so the fact that yours went well made me less nervous. Thanks so much for updating us!

You got this good luck!

We have the same date. I’ve never had surgery before either (well a c-section) but I know how you feel. First off we won’t be cut open because it is laparoscopic and my surgeon said you’ll only remember about 30 seconds before surgery once you wake up it’ll be over. So I just keep thinking about that!

No that is not bizarre to all! It’s just like having to tie my shoes and by the time I’m done I’m breathing like I ran a 5 mile marathon! Lmao!

Yes all of that!!! Having potlucks at work and wondering if people are watching you to see how many times you ate!

Yes I hate those damn weight limits, I always have to check those with like everything. So glad you don’t have to go through that stuff again! Lol

Ahhh the relief! Lol

Wow that sucks but hey we’re getting the surgery so that’s all that really matters

Did preop last Thursday and COVID test Saturday. I have to call tomorrow afternoon to see what time I have to check in, I am really hoping it is in the morning because I cannot take waiting around all day!

I have pretty much the same thing except for the sweet potatoes are you more excited or nervous?

Good luck everyone. I am actually getting pretty anxious omg can’t believe I am doing this!
