Officially a bandster

[EJRN 79]

Can't believe this is real! Until the gas kicks in and I KNOW it's real. Gas pain is bad but bearable. I have an on-Q pump that delivers pain Meds every hour. I also have oral pain Meds. Clear Liquids today and tomorrow I can eat mushies. But right now, I don't want anything !!!

congrats girl! Welcome to bandland, hope you do well with the gas pains, they can get bad but walk around so it will work its way out and also a heating pad helps too.

I went a bought a heating pad as well. From my understanding the grass will be trapped in the shoulder and rib cage area after surgery. So I'm trying to make sure I have all the essentials. Hope that helps!
