Caribe 28 Posted October 22, 2013 Surgery in just 21.5 hours. ... I have to say I am not really nervous because I know that God has my back. Im actually really excited!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hidden from view 159 Posted October 22, 2013 Ok so the first couple of times I had to get out of bed really sucked! It felt likey insodes were being ripped apart... some crying but it literally got better hour by hour. Right now its 3:30am and I can get in and out of bed. With minimal effort. I can do a brisk walk several times around the unit I can pee without difficulty I have not had any nausea whatsoever! I m getting plenty of fluids and considering what my body just went throu I feel great! Yep, that hour by hour improvement is exactly what I experienced. Couldn't believe how quickly I felt better. First night was painful, first day I felt terrible. Told visitors not to come just to watch me vomit! I thought something had gone terribly wrong, but my surgeon wasn't worried - told me it would pass, and lo, it did. Went home the next day fit as a flea!

Hidden from view 159 Posted October 22, 2013 I didn't have a leak test. At least not whilst I was awake - maybe they did it whilst I was still under the anaesthetic...? 1 Kiki75 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had everything built up to be the worse, that I think that's why it's going so easy. SO FAR! Don't wanna jinx myself. The swallow didn't bother me. 2 Kiki75 and Hidden from view reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
