ladyspl 161 Posted November 16, 2012 Karma, the chicken broth tasted like heaven to me LOL Worm, I'm at West Penn hospital, so far so good, just saw Dr Gagne again, he said I'm good too go home today, but because I live in Erie, he wants me to stay til tomorrow and get as hydrated as I can. I'm ok with that, especially since now that I survived, this is my vacation LOL I'm sleeping great, no laundry, no cooking, no chasing kids, no diapers.....yeah, I'm ok with another day LOL 2 LA GP and worm2872 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1972 17 Posted November 16, 2012 Imani. NJ. Op date the 19th of November... Op went well.... Got a nasty sinus infection though. Was home 3 days later... In a lot of pain... Then Sandy hit and I had no lights for a week. I can't begin to tell you what that was like being sick and all. I'm almost at four weeks and 21 pounds down. I'm hopeful. 1 worm2872 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peachee213 67 Posted November 16, 2012 Hi family. Sorry it took so long to check back in. Im doing okay. I have pain at my incision sites and my surgery was longer than expected because I had a sliding hernia on my esophagus. the anesthesia took a long time to leave my system. But the nurses said I was leaving tracks on the floor from walking so. I came home last night. It's a struggle to get in all these fluids. But I'm trying! My husband has been great taking care of me. I hope everyone had smooth surgeries and recoveries for yesterday and today. 4 Contentwithme, mommy327, 1972 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KellyAnn805 21 Posted November 16, 2012 YAY! Mine just called and my surgery is at noon and I have to be there at 10:00. So we will be, literally, having the surgery at the same time. The pre-op guy at the hospital just freaked me out a bit. He said "oh, you're having the lapband to bypass, you definitely want your pain meds." WHAA! He said I'm going to have more pain than the normal bypass patient because it's more invasive. I am freaking out now!! 1 1972 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
