It almost 8, you should be at the hospital now. LOL You will be just fine. The anesthesiologist is your friend......he has the good stuff. He will mix up a fine liquid for you. Let us know how it was.

Too late for me to offer any advice as you are probably getting ready to go into surgery now. So, instead I will just say good luck, I am sure everything will go well. Let us know how you are feeling as soon as you are up to it.

Thanks everyone for all your well wishes and great advise. Everything went well, other then a small delay this morning. My surgery ended up being around 10:30, and I left Fair Oaks hospital at 5:00. I'm home, and just took my first dose of pain meds. I'm sure I will hurt more tomorrow, but I'm just hoping for a good night sleep tonight.

Thanks again for all your support.

Yeaaaaaaaaaa!!! Good luck. I hope your couple first days are a breeze. My recovery went well. I hope the same for you. Even though you may be on some good pain killers right now thing get better everyday. Get your rest and heres a big hug, avoiding your tummy of course. Get better soon.
