Ellody 9 Posted July 3, 2012 Hello everyone, I've been reading this forum for a few weeks and I cannot thank you guys enough. Well, tomorrow morning at 7:30 I have to report to the hospital for surgery. I just packed my bag with items that I will need. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Hope everything will be ok. Please everyone keep me in your prayers. Sent from my HTC EVO using RNYTalk 2 Alex Brecher and EEsMom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But after surgery in recovery room I wanted to die. Pain in my chest, back...worst than having gald bladder removed. Thank you for all the prayers and support. I am so hungry, just having ice chips.

I know you will be feeling better soon and looking great! Thanks for caring. I am in my bed taking Lortab elixir for pain and Protonix for gas. So far so good. It's getting up from the bed that is a killer. Sent from my HTC EVO using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
almostime2bme 25 Posted July 5, 2012 Hi Ellody, I had my surgery on Monday so I'm a day ahead of you. I feel you on the recovery room pains...OMG!!!! Thank goodness for morphine pumps! I feel a little better today, only taking the elixer in the morning and at night to help me sleep. I have belched my head off but seems to be getting better. I don't have a drain, do you? Thanks goodness, I was dreading the removal. My doctor does a three week clear liquid diet after so all I am getting is sf Jello, sf popsicles, Water, G2 and crystal light. It all tastes way too sweet to me but I'm getting it down! Good Luck to you 1 EEsMom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
