EmilyMikulec 21 Posted February 26, 2014 Scheduled for 2/27! It's almost here!!!! I've been on a liquid diet for almost two weeks I can tell I've lost weight cause my pants feel loose but I don't want to weight myself till surgery day! Exited and scared but mostly exited! Is the surgery painful? 3 Mikee57, PrettyThick1 and kll724 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kll724 3,055 Posted February 26, 2014 How exciting for you! Follow your surgeon's guidelines, you will not regret it. More than likely you will feel gas pains, walking is essential for that.

LadyDiva618 359 Posted February 26, 2014 The gas pain was annoying but remember to walk, walk, walk and walk. You will do just fine. Good Luck 2 Mikee57 and 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mikee57 699 Posted February 26, 2014 You will know you had surgery...I had to have a hernia repaired as well so I was a bit more sore alittle longer...but you'll do just fine...just know you will be sore for awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EmilyMikulec 21 Posted February 27, 2014 I go the call my surgery is scheduled at 7 am. It's finally here!!! How long did it take you guys to recuperate? Also should I ask the nurse to get me started on stool softener a right away? And is there any pointers to improve my recovery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
