surgerydude 40 Posted October 5, 2015 Has anyone else been keeping an online log/blog? I put in my last pre-surgery entry in mine, so I feel like I'm actually ready for it (4am wakeup, 7:30am tomorrow - Tuesday - morning). Wanna waste some time hearing someone else whining about their WLS surgery? Feel free to read through mine: http://wls-process.blogspot.com/ If you've got one, post it here so I can commiserate! -sd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sleevegirl1018 30 Posted October 6, 2015 I have to be there at 8a. My surgery was cancelled twice due to my low potassium levels. I can't believe it's finally going to happen tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrys129 208 Posted October 6, 2015 Middle of the night and hiccups woke meOh man. I keep coughing a little and it's awful. Can't fathom hiccups. Hope they stopped Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrys129 208 Posted October 6, 2015 Surgery went really well yesterday. My doctor said it was his smoothest case all day. Pain is 3-4. I'm allergic to narcotic pain meds so just doing Tylenol from the start. It'd probably be 0-1 with pain medicine. Worst part is how sore and dry throat was/is, causing some coughing. Otherwise doing well. Hardly slept. I can never sleep in hospital. Just woke up - less than 9 hours to surgery. See you on the other side.Good luck today!
