Surgery in 8 hours!

Yay! you made it! Glad your surgery went well. Don't worry about the naked on the table thing, I'm an OR nurse and believe me, you see one naked body, you've seen 'em all.

I'm 3 days post op and feel great.My advice is, FOLLOW YOUR SURGEON'S DIRECTIONS EXACTLY and Keep moving, don't stay too long in one position, I tend to get stiff and sore if I stay in one spot, then I walk like a hunchback, lol. I never had the shoulder pain everyone has talked about. Mine tends to be in my lower back on both sides, kinda like kidney pain, weird.

Welcome to the Banded Bunch!

Thanks Carol! I actually feel fine for the most part, when I'm sitting in one place watching TV or reading. Even taking small steps around the house is fine. I just have this discomfort around my port whenever I move.

I can't imagine going to school/work like this on Tuesday. Hopefully, I'll be better tomorrow and even better on Sunday.
