I hope the rest of your journey is smooth sailing. I'm scheduled for my surgery on March 9 and I know the statistics for problems are low but I'm just trying to find out as much as I can before I have my surgery. Please keep in touch and I'll pray for you.

I truly understand the regret. I have my moments still but I keep telling myself that if I could have taken the weight off I would not have had the surgery, but there are still times I wish I would have tried harder and not had the surgery.

Cheers to the end result and to better days =) I am glad you are feeling better and I am looking forward to your wonderful post of nothing but good and happy results.

well if you have any questions... feel free to ask! also theres a section for complications on here if you want to read more. let me tell u, no matter how much research u do, nothing prepares you for a complication because it is one thing to be educated on it & its another to experience it. im not trying to be negative but i cant downplay the hell. plenty of times i would just start chanting to god begging him to help me!

so its been a little less than 24hrs since removing my stent. i must say, i feel a lot better already. i didnt need to take loritab for pain last night and i usually take it 2x per night... sometimes even 3!

usually i cant find a comfortable sleeping position because it hurts my chest & back badly. usually ifeel chest & back & even rib pain all day long! i dont feel anything now.

my throat is sore but thats nothing!!! i can handle that pain anyday compared to a stent.

also, usually i have CONSTANT saliva. i have a bucket next to my bed. i havent been spitting since getting home but was still spitting right after the removal.

i cant believe its out. its too good to be true. i keep thinking the dr is gonna call me with bad news lol. seriously! i feel lucky & feel blessed right now. it was truly TRULY truly hell and i made it.

thank you god!!!!!

thank you to all of you who listened to me whine and complain and cry and b!+ch day in and day out about my experience. you guys truly helped a lot.

also thank you to favoredone (im not sure if shes following this story) but she went above & beyond and sent me 2dozen roses from proflowers with this beautiful red vase. its the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me and i wish i could squeeze her!!!!

im thankful & grateful for you all.

in the complications part of this blog is where i will continue to tell my story under the post "i definitely regret surgery....so far" incase you guys are interested in my follow ups for future months.
