magicalwoman 190 Posted September 10, 2015 Hi, I just arrived home about an hour ago. I had a pretty restless night at the surgery center...wasn't my iComfort! I've taken my meds and I think I am going to try to rest and sleep for a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jane13 2,256 Posted September 10, 2015 @@magicalwoman - good idea. catch up on your sleep and try to move and hydrate when you are awake today. tomorrow if you can try OTC pain meds and still hydrate and move... Like your new seat, on the losers bench??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Radar 204 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) I had my surgery yesterday too and won't be out until at least tomorrow morning. I'm exhausted though, nurses come in every 30 mins it seems like lol. About 10 years ago, I discovered I had high blood pressure when I was at work with chest pains. They brought me to the hospital for a "stress test" which is supposed to be either getting on a treadmill with electrodes on your body or getting a shot that speeds up your heart... with electrodes on your body. I had to stay overnight. They woke me up every half hour to an hour throughout the night. I asked if that was really the stress test because if it was... it was working. @@magicalwoman Congratulations ! Welcome to the Club !!! @Radar My sleeve was outpatient ... I had it done at 8am and was home by 3pm ... I had no idea you could do that! I thought it was a huge serious thing and they had to keep you for a few days.

MrsKarenC2008 622 Posted September 10, 2015 @Radar I used to think that same thing! But I went through True Results ... and that is how they did the sleeve for me ... there were a lot of ppl there that day ... they also do surgeries in the hospital for others ... but this is what worked for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twinmomma422 54 Posted September 10, 2015 I didn't know you could do out patient also! Good for you! You're probably resting better than I am. I just fell asleep eating lol!! Hoping you're having a fast recovery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicalwoman 190 Posted September 11, 2015 Just took more pain meds about an hour ago. I slept for about an hour maybe. Tried unjury chicken Soup, best thing I've had so far. I will stay up for another few minutes then back to bed. I feel so tired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saraburnett 16 Posted September 11, 2015 My surgery was today at 8:45 and was sent home at 2. I am doing pretty good so far! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdhaddox 118 Posted September 11, 2015 I was outpatient too. We were home by 2pm and I'm glad. It was nice to be in my own bed. My mom and husband made sure I got my mess around the clock and really don't think I would have been any better off in the hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
