Band to Sleeve TOMORROW. Yikes!

[moonchild1968 102]

Tomorrow is my new day. I'm having every emotion imaginable. Just "all over the place". I'm sitting here trying to clean off my desk,return calls and emails and leave things a bit organized. Why did I wait until today? ugh. At least I'm half packed for the hospital. Surgery is at 2, report at noon. I can't believe it's finally here. I want this so bad.

My doctor prescribed neomycin 2 pills every HOUR 4 hours then 1 pill every 4 hours. That's 12 pills in one day. I'm not a good pill taker, but I took the first dose before leaving the house. By the time I dropped my son off at school, I knew it didn't agree with my stomach. I called the office. They said, "Stop taking it. You'll be fine. It was just as a precaution." Now, I'm wishing it didn't upset my stomach so bad because I feel like I'm missing a step and I want to dot all my i's and cross my t's. They wouldn't have told me to stop taking them if I shouldn't have. Right? They also prescribed 3tblsp. milk of mag, which I just took and all seems well so far. Maybe I should've taken today off, too?

I didn't have to take Neomycin & I did fine. I'm sure they would have suggested other ways to take it if they thought you really needed to choke it down. I think you need the distraction of work. You seem very emotional & nervous. I know I was! You deserve this & everything is going to go fine! Praying for a speedy recovery, your new life begins tomorrow!
