Megs81 41 Posted January 29, 2013 It will be fine. The first few days are uncomfortable but the more you get up and move around and sip on Water the better you will feel faster. Good luck to all. I'm back at work tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mizzzliza 113 Posted January 29, 2013 I feel so good that I am thinking of going back to work next week too. I hate to jump the gun and then be sorry if I do go back and regret it. Truthfully I could have gone back to work a couple days after my surgery but I decorate cakes on the side and had orders to get done so thought what the heck. They gave me the time. May as well take it. Glad you're feeling good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerryBelieves 352 Posted January 29, 2013 Hey everyone, I am so much better this afternoon. I made it through the leak test this morning. I had a headache and was giving liquid loratab, I took a nap the the headache is gone! I got to shower today and have been walking. Seem to be tolorating cool not cold liquids, and some tipid not really warm broth. Dr. said surgery went smooth and the nurse says I'm a rockstar, that I am doing great!

Mystie 146 Posted January 30, 2013 The leak test was the worst part for me. I was so nauseous, and choking down that contrast study felt like torture. 1 Delta girl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
