dayciavu 26 Posted January 8, 2016 @@dayciavu Well done on getting through it. How's everything else going too? Diet, etc? And how are your wounds feeling? thanksI'm doing ok, the first 2 days were the worst for pain. The incisions aren't that uncomfortable unless I'm trying to stand up from a sitting position Or bending over and it's only on the left side. The diet is ok, I'm still trying to figure out a drinking schedule, and medicine schedule. Other than that I'm feeling pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 1 Posted January 8, 2016 @dayciavu glad things have gone well for you, I am having my op tomorrow, really nervous but know that it will be worth when I get to the losers bench. Do you have a lot of gas pain or just pain from incisions? Wishing everyone a speedy recovery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have a lot of gas pain or just pain from incisions? Wishing everyone a speedy recovery! In the beginning the pain was mostly from the gas and the pain now is mostly from the incisions when I try to stand up. Good luck to you. It's hard in the beginning and hurts a lot. Hopefully you get good meds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CHM 1,009 Posted January 12, 2016 I got my approval letter from insurance today. Called the surgeon's office immediately and was offered the choice of Jan 25th or Feb 24th. January 25th it is! Luckily no pre-op diet - just liquids the day before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
