enajee 3 Posted May 17, 2012 Well I had surgery on the 15th at 11am. Was out of recovery in my room by 5pm. I was kept an extra day because anesthesia was kicking my ass and BP was all over the place. I'm still out of it trying to figure out how to get my energy level up. I'm also dealing with Aunt Flow who decided to visit me today.. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MG in SD 75 Posted May 20, 2012 I had my surgery Monday and was released home Tuesday. First couple of days sucked, but I followed directions, walked a lot & took my pain meds. It's been 5/6 days and I'm feeling pretty good. I'm sipping liquids all day but have got them all in. The gas & indegestion are bearable and the surgery wounds are super small, I have 5 in total. I'm going to drive to my friends house tomorrow to watch Game of Thrones, I have to get out of my house! But doing great! Down 20 lbs including the pre op diet.

Nanny3Kids 8 Posted May 20, 2012 Updates would be wonderful, rather nervous myself here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MG in SD 75 Posted May 20, 2012 I just didn't care about posting right after the surgery. I was so drugged up anyway! I kept falling asleep like a narcoleptic! I don't know how some of these people post right after surgery. Big ups to them for being troopers! Lol Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melissa D 34 Posted May 20, 2012 My surgery went fine, was feeling great Saturday morning before all day air travel, blah. Got home & have been having a heavy feeling in my chest. Hoping it's just anesthesia or surgical gas, but I just don't know. I've been up since 230 this morning worrying about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beautifulnewme2012 164 Posted May 20, 2012 I updated but I had started another thread and forgot about this one in my drugged state...lmao! My surgery had some complications I wasn't expecting. Stayed 2 extra days I wasn't expecting and scared my poor hubby half to death. But Jesus got me thru it. And I am sore but feeling so much better today. Can't give a weight update. I was told by the surgeon not to weigh till he takes my drain out. My whole body was swollen due to blood pressure issues and Water retention. So the scale isn't likely to be accurate till the swelling goes down. Even so, the fam says I look thinner. I will find out Tues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
