MoreThanAPrettyFace 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Woo hoo! Surgery was this afternoon with Dr. Aceves and it went great. He even repaired an undiagnosed hiatal hernia while in there. I've been walking, sucking on my spirometer, and chilling I can't say enough about Dr. Aceves and his team. So far, simply amazing. Practically no pain and hardly any indication Ive had anything done so I'm being careful to not overdo it. I realize the pain could intensify at any point, so at this time I am counting my blessings! God is good. Thank you for the all then encouragement both public and private from you all. Looking forward to doing this TOGETHER! Erin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sarsar 824 Posted June 15, 2011 Glad to hear that all is well! I also had a hiatal hernia that I didn't know about repaired. Ask for their shaved ice chips, they are so good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoreThanAPrettyFace 0 Posted June 15, 2011 Thanks all! I will try for that, sarsar. I have a little discomfort today but it is very manageable. Can't wait to start losing! I'll update again soon Erin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marymoon 18 Posted June 15, 2011 The first 24 hours were the most uncomfortable for me but each day saw improvement. Get plenty of rest while your body is still in shock & by day 3 you'll feel much better! Congrats again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
