cullychick 46 Posted March 18, 2013 Girl, walk walk walk. It's truly the only thing that helps! Also life your arms above your head as much as you can. Also if you have someone around that can rub your shoulders it will relieve the pain and let you relax a little with everything! Trust me I've been moving because I knew from the get go that would be the thing to help!! I'll have to have my boyfriend work on the shoulder rub lol Thanks!

parisshel 1,892 Posted March 18, 2013 Suitcase is packed, house is clean, laundry done, kids squared away....I check into the hospital tomorrow (Tuesday) at 3PM and am slated for my surgery Wednesday morning. Not sure where I am on the surgeon's roster but hopefully early! Thank you everybody for the buoying, carrying me (and all of us) across the demarcation line from pre-op jitters to post-op recovery....and then on to success! 3 Sandilee0210, flrosie and SaraWalk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rina83 22 Posted March 19, 2013 Good luck everyone! I was banded yesterday and feeling pretty good - just a little sore! I hope everyone going in this week has a good experience! I'll be thinking of you and saying some prayers! 3 aeromech, Mizz_Megan and Tezzie Pooh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mizz_Megan 40 Posted March 19, 2013 Well my surgery was supposed to be tomorrow but its been delayed 2-3 weeks now! I went to the dentist and my tooth is infected. I know this is the best but I've been on a liquid diet for 3 days and was hoping to be banded by tomorrow. Bummer!!! Well for everyone else who's having surgery this week good luck and prayers sent your way! 2 gr8 mommy and aeromech reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
