Plan ahead with your liquid diet, half of my stress came from what was I going to eat pre open and post op. And don't be afraid to ask for that pain medicine lol. I was really sore when I woke up and felt like I was going to throw up, but in time it went away. And honestly I'm still dealing with head hungers. But good luck I'll be here lol, if you have any questions.

I understand exactly what you are saying I am 1 week post op and I am just ready to get on with it. I have never regretted this decision but I wish that I can feel like myself again I don't know if what I am feeling is me healing due to I never had surgery before I wish I was doing this with somebody close to me so we can talk and compare glad I found this app

@@roxygal1 I totally understand how you're feeling! That was my first surgery also and I regretted it entirely, but honestly 3 weeks out and it got better. Eventhough I have my partner I feel like no one would understand me unless they went through it. But don't worry I promise it gets better and it takes time, I see it like the surgery was the easy part now comes the hard part. Where I just want to eat like before and fight head hungers.

Hey there,

I am in East Brunswick and pre-op with Dr. Sadek. Going through cardiac tests this week and have my endoscopy on May 3. I requested June 29 for my surgery as I have time off for the summer. Reading up on advice from everyone and hoping to prepare myself for all the changes. Congrats to all of you already working with your new tool.

@@Reason to Believe Hey, so I took just a couple days off since I thought a month would be way too long honestly. But everyone is different, I felt alright with walking after a week and ok to work around the same time period. Good luck with everything!!

[Foxy_lady 22]

Omg @ Foxy_lady, I kno exactly how you are feeling. I had mine done on 3/7 and the regret feelings I had every day until yesterday, I think when we start feeling better from the pain most of the regrets go away. Hang in there you will feel better,
