  1. Happy 59th Birthday blackjack120!

  2. Happy 58th Birthday blackjack120!

  3. She's doing much better. Thanx for asking. I'm kinda nauseous today for some reason, but other than that I'm ok. Getting ready to take the nausea meds right now. See if that helps. Other than that things are going great. My mom was doing so bad cuz she wasn't taking her meds on schedule like she was supposed to. and she has four big insisions so she's going to need to take it easy for a while yet. Well thanx for checking in. Talk to you soon.

  4. Sounds like you are doing better. I had 5 incisions and I am still sore around the port area and one other place. I havn't taken any pain meds today really couldn't tell that much difference with them just a little drowsy. Hope you continue to improve each day. How is your Mom?

  5. i'm actually doing really well. had half a protein shake today and also some water. i was a single incision so i only have one little scar, about 3mm long on my stomach. where they put my iv actually looks worse than my actual incision. it's nice. today i've just kinda laid around. not even taking much pain meds actually. what the doc gave me wasn't working so he fills something else for me that doesn't really work the best either. thank goodness i don't need it i guess. there are really only two pain medications that have ever worked for me and that's dilaudid and darvocet. but he said he can't call those in cuz of the high level of narcotics in it. well that's all i have for right now. just wanted to give you an update.

I was really sore that first day after surgery but am doing alot better with everyday that passes. Hope you are feeling lots better by today also. Keep me posted. I will be thinking about ya. Kathy

  7. Just wanted to drop you a line and see how you were doing. I hope everything went well for you. I actually had a minor setback and not getting banded untill today. We had really bad storms in this area yesterday and the doctor got stranded cuz they closed the interstate. Not good. So we got a room last night and came back this morning. Yesterday was a loooooooong day.

    Well anyway. Just wanted to make sure you were doing ok and let you know I was thinking about you. Talk to you later. Good luck. Yesterday was your new Birthday.

  8. Good luck to you tomorrow too! I totally can't wait. I almost can't stand it. :lol: I've been on pins and needles all day. Hopefully I get some sleep tonight. On the upsdie my mom has cable so at least I won't be bored if I can't sleep. Keep me posted. I'm taking my laptop to the hospital so hopefully I'll be able to get back to you shortly after and let you know how I'm doing. Keep me posted.
