I did it. I had surgery today. I expected the worst. Right now at 11pm is the most I have been alert and awake. I have been sleeping like crazy and a few hours ago I had some juice and broth which went down ok especially cuz I was hungry and dry throat. I also toke a short walk which was hard because I am super dizzy. The pain was bad at first but has gotten easier and is tolerable. I'm a big baby and for me I was surprised the pain is not bad. Nothing that the meds could not fix. I no longer am scared and I feel good and don't regret this. Thank God. Now I am finally excited. Wishing everyone the best.

Omg!!! I did it. I had surgery today at noon. I expected the worst and cried some before it because I was so nervous. Right now at 11pm is the most I have been alert and awake. I have been sleeping like crazy and a few hours ago I had some juice and broth which went down ok especially cuz I was hungry and dry throat. I also toke a short walk which was hard because I am super dizzy. The pain was bad at first but has gotten easier and is tolerable. I'm a big baby and for me I was surprised the pain is not bad. Nothing that the meds could not fix. I no longer am scared and I feel good and don't regret this!! Thank God. Now I am finally excited!!! Wishing everyone the best.........

I am sorry you are in so much pain I was done 11/14 and I do have pain but the pain medication is working well. I have been walking a lot too it helps a lot because you will get more more sore from not moving. Prayers for you

Thank u! I swear I expected the worst, but everyone is different and it is tolerable, nothing meds cannot fix. I was even due at 2am for meds but I will wait a little bit since I want to stay awake and I'm currently eating ice chips. It's extremely uncomfortable but I don't regret it, well not yet. Good luck to u all, go in with a positive attitude.
