makemyownluck 785 Posted July 15, 2013 I slept about 2 hours the night before surgery -- and I ended up sleeping through most of my hospital stay afterward to make up for it! Good luck, the hard part is right around the corner, but it get easier every single day. <3 2 kailie and FRED1977 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

makemyownluck 785 Posted July 15, 2013 Oh, and if you tell them you are nervous, they will give you something. They will give you something anyway, but if you tell them, you'll get it sooner rather than right before you go in for surgery. Ask them for a scope patch also - it prevents nausea. I didn't have any issues with feeling nauseous after surgery and I thank the patch for that! The anesthesiologist can get you the scope patch - just ask! 1 kailie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had no nausea after surgery at all. 1 kailie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aliekat55 157 Posted July 15, 2013 I am waiting to leave for the hospital which is only 5 min away. No nerves. Actually having hard time believing it is upon me. Could use a cup of coffee though. There is a Starbucks on the way... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
