hey everyone I am posting the pics of me in my "after surgery" folder now! go look!!

Good morning everyone! Have fun tomorrow at the sac meeting. I am laying in bed sipping my next dose of vicodin. I am living off it. I have a lot of pain in my port area and chest is tight. I have been using the spiro thingy a lot today. I don't remember who asked but yes I am able to get burps out but that's it. The baby is being very soft around me she keeps asking to see mommys boo boos.my ex ended up dropping her back with my mom last nite because I was so tired I was crying. Its hard with a 3 year old. Thanks everyone who keeps sending me well wishes and checking on me :biggrin:

Hi everyone I am okay just very sore at my port area....I am home with my baby. I showed her my boo boos and she said ooohh mommy u need a band aid? I said no I'm ok but brianna can't touch okay? Of course right then she pokes one lol Otherwise living off water and vicodin. Doing tons of walking around my house. I ate some jello but it made my tummy feel funny. Maybe full? I think tina asked, I have 5 inciscions. Okay I'm still groggy ill be back later. Thank you everyone for standing by me!!! I am glad I didn't quit either!! A year from now ill be running with my baby

HERE I AM!!! SORE THROAT AND ALL. LOL!! I am doing fine, some pain under my left boob which Nicole and Candra have told me is fine. So the power came back on around 730. I was preped and in with Baggs by 8 am. I was scared, I cried in the surgery room of course....but I was out so fast I dont remember much. I was also down to 247.3 this morning yay! everyone was so nice. When I woke up, I had the elephant on my chest big time, I was weezing for air, they had to turn the oxygen back on full blast for me. When it came time for the barium swollow I was SO SICK TO MY STOMACH I was carrying around a little tub in case I threw up. They gave me lots of medicines to help me through out the day, and I was released at 2 pm. My inciscions are NICE! they look good! Baggs told me someone told him I was worried and that I would be fine *wink wink tina* I have a pic of me before I went in with Baggs I will post later. I have only had water and gas x today plus the liquid vicadin. I have walked a few times and it made me burp which was nice. I am gonna sip some chicken broth, I will bbl!!! Thank you so much everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At this very second no LOL I keep thinking greaaaaaat their gonna loose power during and my moms bugging me to resched

Okay the power just went out in the entire hospital and all surgeries have been stopped.

Morning!!! Lee I read it I'm here!!!!!! Thank you soooo much for the positive vibes! You too pat!!!! I will have my bestie send txt out as soon as he can!!!! On the way now. Raining is coming down in the rich. I didn't sleep well last nite I hate sleeping at other peoples house :mad: Well I'm almost there, going down Barrett. Ttyl everyone I love you all!!!!!!!

Hey everyone!! Mo* girl ill try and call you back tomorrow I am at my moms house already! This MOM has me hurting I am not happy lol no bathroom moments yet tho. I will take the pills in the AM

hahahah thanks Tina!!! I ended up biting ALL MY NAILS OFF today. I said you know what screw this, I am not taking any chances. I will take the pill tonight before bed like they told me, but I dunno about the one in the morning since I cant have anything to drink?? I am going to drop the baby off, then staying at my bestfriends house since he lives in Pinole. I have to be there @ 630 in the AM. I hope the MOM kicks in soon =(

Thanks Lee! yes it's the sleeping part I am most worried about. I don't know what MOM does, but I have the WORSE lower stomach pressure right now it kinda hurts to stand! My daughter is still with me I am not dropping her off till about 730/8pm. I want to keep her till her bed time :mad:

Thanks Maria~ I wonder why I got these random 2 pills? I was going to wear some yoga pants and a hoodie. No more eating after 6pm....no response from the MOM, should I be worried? LOL!

congrads on your band cinla, haven't heard from ya in a while, my Concord buddy :mad: I wonder why I got these pills then? maybe because I said I was scared of being sick to my stomch?

Hi everyone! Being banded 1/20/2010 and am freaking out!! I have people telling me I don't need this ( I have lost 35 lbs pre band as required by my dr), there's bad things behind surgeries, everything! it's stressing me out. I am the most paranoid person there is, so this scares me. Just looking for some good positive vibes for the day after tomorrow!!

Did anyone else get two pills, one for before bed and one in the AM for naseua? (sp)

8 am surgery :mad: be there at 6:30 am!

Nope no MOM moments yet...*shrugs* lol....just ate my last good size lunch, london broil with broccoli, and yes a diet coke...LOL

Well I called and was told they are doing the schedule now and to call back in 15 mins LOL!

Thank you everyone!! I am gearing up for tomorrow, I get my surgery time @ 1:30 today.... I will come back for sure!!:mad:

hahahah I am!!! Okay sooo 1 hour till I get my appointment!! I happened to log online and it says this under appointments: Wed, Jan 20, 11:30 am IVP - Tomorrow - RADIOLOGY - RICHMOND HOSPITAL Whats this?? is it the Barium swollow maybe? Can I assume I have a bright and early surgery??

omg okay that was the worse thing i have ever drank....lol

Okay it's almost 10 am I better take my MOM!! eeeeww!! and I haven't ate yet =(

Good Morning!! I feel so much better, THANK YOU EVERYONE!! I listened to the CD last night Kaiser gave me and fell asleep to it. It really relaxed me, but I had some weird dreams LOL!! I woke up with a small stuffy nose and small sore throat; not good. But I slept with my heater on all night so I think that might have been why. Its time to change the filter. Nicole ~ I'll save your number and make sure that Ron adds you into the text I will have him send. HAPPY RAINY TUESDAY EVERYONE!!!
