T-Minus 23 hours too sleeved, entering Magnesium Citrate phase......

[nprcowboy 533]

singing... tomorrow, tomorrow, I'll be sleeved tomorrow, its only a day away........ wow, so close now, cant believe the time has arrived. Start my "cleaning out the plumbing drink" in a n hour. I'm nervous, excited, on edge, the whole sh'bang. I just feel I'm missing something for post op home needs but I can have someone get me if I need it. I have to pack my hospital stay bag and figure out what I am bringing. I've got great info here, so I have gasx strips, chapstick, anything else besides the obvious change of clothes and my phone or tablet? ANy items that were great to have when you got home? I had read a recliner was a great help so I got one last week. I also got a mug warmer too.

I'll also try and post from hospital if I can.

thanks for all the support!! love this site and group

Best of luck!!!

The only thing that came in handy was a "buddy" to walk the halls with after surgery. It really helps to get up and get moving.

I had "plumbing" issues after my surgery in that I was not able to go to the bathroom for several days. It was not fun and a bit painful. I had to end up taking the magnesium citrate and it eventually helped.

Good luck and keep everyone posted!!

Good luck to you and speedy recovery! I'm a little over a week out before surgery and I can't contain my excitement! I don't even want to think how I will be the day before
