I hope you didn't have to postpone for health reasons...are you okay? I am doing better today than I have since the surgery. Tomorrow is 2 weeks for me and I'm doing everything the doctor said. I'm terrified of vomiting or a slippage so I have set my mind against over eating or cheating. I am moving around easier. The soreness is still there but the pain hasn't hit me at all today. Yesterday was horrible for bloating and gas and I figured out it was from drinking water or eating too fast. I don't make that mistake now. lol By the way, my name is Phyllis Couturier and my email address is phyllisjack2000@yahoo.com. I would love it if you would email me there so we can get our messages quicker to each other. I would love the emails and don't mind sharing what is going on with me.

Well, I had to postpone mine until the 20th. So, I haven't had it done yet. How are you feeling? I will be going to Decatur to have mine done. I can't wait!!

I hope your surgery went really good for you on the 4th. You are probably pretty sore right now. I had mine on the 30th at Forest Park Medical Center with Dr. Kim and he did a great job. I'm just a few days ahead of you so if you want to stay in contact, I will be happy to. My best advise right now is TOTALLY take care of yourself, take it easy, walk around every hour, sip things slowly, take deep breaths and hold some kind of compress against your port site when moving to help it from pulling and hurting so much. Hope to hear back when you feel like checking your emails!

Thank you for your message. It meant alot because I feel a little alone out here and haven't figured out this website yet. I didn't even know you could send private messages to someone. I try not to admit that I am a little nervous about my surgery on Monday because I've been reading things on this site about people being in reallly bad stomach pain. I had a laparoscopy surgery once before so I've had a little experience with the gas pain. My doctor is David Kim in Collelyville but my surgery will be at Forest Park Medical Center in Dallas that just opened up on March 16th (let's hope they have their act together - ha). If you would like my private email, it is phyllisjack2000@yahoo.com. Please feel free to contact me there also if you would like to keep in closer contact.
