Lauriesworld76 20 Posted March 26, 2013 Hello everyone!! I had my surgery yesterday at about 8:30 am... Everything went wonderful!! I was so surprised that I wasn't scared or nervous!! I have hardly any pain, it's amazing. I haven't walked around today yet, but yesterday I walked around 3 different time 5 laps each. No problems except for some nausea while walking. I've had a headache since yesterday morning that won't go away!! They said its probably from lack of caffeine. They are starting me on some Clear Liquids today, hopefully that will go well.. Fingers crossed 3 kraney, ElleG and alc1071 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lauriesworld76 20 Posted March 26, 2013 I just spoke to Hospital registration' date=' I have to be there are 9:45A in the morning. YIPPIE! I'm so excited. My challenge right now is I have to have clear liquids all day today until midnight. I have a headache and my stomach is growling and the veggie broth I have is disgusting. Other than that Yippie!!!

ElleG 394 Posted March 26, 2013 The day is finally here I have this warm fuzzy feeling and I can't wait to be on the losing side. I'm praying for all the other marchers going in today. I'm praying for our surgeons and nurses to be on their games today and bring us all out with as less pain as possible. I appreciate all the well wishes! See you all on the other side!! 2 kraney and alc1071 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orgndnr 12 Posted March 26, 2013 Had my surgery yesterday. I had four incisions and two of the hurt really, really bad. The morphine hasn't touched it. I got very nauseated when I got up to walk for the first time yesterday. I made it 100 feet the first time to get the catheter out. I walked two more times - 350 and 700 feet. I am on clear liquids today. One oz every 15 minutes. It goes by FAST! I had an Iron infusion last night and will have two more today. Should go home tomorrow around noon.

nhnurse1 108 Posted March 26, 2013 Yes that's the one. WOW, fentanyl Patches are very strong, I am so surprised they put you on that. It seems like an awful lot of medication. Healing prayers sent your way!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
