ELI.p.m 44 Posted November 22, 2014 So I went to my pre op appointment Wednesday and from the previous appointment I was told my surgery was going to be dec. 1, but they pumped it up to this Monday.Iam so nervous IAM glad I have a good support system because I COULD NOT do it alone. Kids have to go to school and such. Hopefully everything turns out great ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haleytrim 244 Posted November 22, 2014 Just keep a positive attitude. Follow your doctor's orders exactly and drink and walk as much as you can. Sending prayers up for you and your surgeons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted November 23, 2014 pumped it up to Monday @@ELI.p.m how exciting to be told your surgery is being moved up better than moving it back a week or so surgery has been sprung up earlier than planned - that is so exciting great that you have people right there to support you OMG - monday is the day after tomorrow, or the day before tuesday hmmmm i think they are one in the same!! good luck speedy recovery kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miss Mac 6,262 Posted November 23, 2014 Good for you! Now you can get it over with and start healing. That is over a week less that you have to worry. Don't forget to take some chapstick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ELI.p.m 44 Posted November 23, 2014 Thanks to all !! My surgeon is going on an unexpected vacation and he moved it up I'm glad because some of the patients scheduled that same day got moved two weeks after! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ELI.p.m 44 Posted November 23, 2014 Iam getting butterflies in my stomach from nervousness and excitement... GOD has surely blessed me. Can any of you tell me what to take ?? The hospital is about a hour ...hour and a half with traffic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anneeo 13 Posted November 23, 2014 From what I've read, I plan on taking my phone and charger, slippers, roomy comfy clothes for going home in, Gas X strips, Burt Bees extra moisturizing lip balm, body lotion, toothbrush, toothpaste, face wash, my reg meds and my own pillow for sleeping and for padding on the drive home. If possible, use a dark or brightly colored pillowcase so you don't forget and leave it behind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anneeo 13 Posted November 23, 2014 I think it's probably good to have less time to stress before surgery. Best of luck and looking forward to a post op update. A new world awaits you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
