Danie1184 0 Posted December 10, 2012 Just got to the hospital and checked in. I have to wait until 8:30am though. Good luck to everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Looking Ahead 239 Posted December 13, 2012 I am scheduled for tomorrow. Surgery is also supposed constant at 9:30 have to be there by 7:30 This is hanner2009's mom...she had the surgery Monday and got home tonight about 6pm. She's having a rough time and alot of pain. Please say a prayer for her. I pray all of you are doing well also. Good luck to you all... PS, it won't hurt as bad if you can sleep in the recliner or sit half up on the couch with pillows and sleep. Also, use a heating pad on the drain area...if you don't have a heating pad...put a towel in the dryer and let it get warm...fold it to keep the heat in it and place where it hurts. Get up and down like you are 9 months pregnant...it won't hurt as much. All this is my experience. Hope it helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heather86 :o) 29 Posted December 14, 2012 I got home Wednesday night and I am just now updating you all. I'm sorry for not getting on here sooner..I just didn't want to get on when I felt bad and possibly ruin someone else's excitement because I was having a hard time. Anyway, my surgery went well and my dr is very proud of the success I've made this far. I have to say though, I am, too! I'm so proud of taking that leap of faith and going through with it and coming out on the other side a whole new person (or so it seems). Good luck to all who are considering this surgery and thank you to everyone who has been here for me and all the other sleevers before me for support. It means the world to me..
