anniehip 14 Posted January 8, 2015 I had my surgery on jan. 5, 2014. Got to the hospital at 6:00am for surgery prep. So far so good! Into OR, I was greeted by all. It was a delight to have everyone say that they would take good care of me. Then it was slumber time.... I woke up in the recovery room. Dr. Hahn was there and told me that along with the sleeve he had to perform a hiatal hernia repair and do a liver biopsy...Good job! In my private room. IV for pain and another for liquids were all hooked up. Meet with the nursing staff that would be checking my vitals etc.. For the next two days. The pain wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Although I kept pushing the IV for pain. A total of 5 incisions. The largest one (about 1 inch) on my right side. It hurt the most. I couldn't even feel the others. Dr. Hahn came to see me more than a few times. I kept asking him all the questions I could think of. He answered and explained them all. He was great!!! I did a lot of sleeping! Dr. Hahn and the hospital staff told me that I was doing very well. No vomiting or nausea. Drinking my fluids and meds. Saw Dr. Hahn one last time to make sure that I understood all the instructions and got all my prescriptions to take home for pain. I was ready to go home...I went home at 6:00 pm on jan. 6. I'm home now and in my own bed. More to come at later time.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tamaramauro 3 Posted January 8, 2015 My date is January 12th. I was only told to do pre op diet 7 days before surgery. It hasn't been that bad. I think it's because I'm so excited for my surgery. Good Luck everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BusyHoosierMom 33 Posted January 8, 2015 Made it to the Marriott in TJ. Had a rough start this morning with first flight delayed then missed connecting flight. Great thing is that the driver was there to pick us up and everything has gone smoothly since then. The Marriott is nice and very comfy. Surgery is tomorrow. Yippee. So excited! Good luck to all of you. See you on the other side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
