Feekenstein 23 Posted September 15, 2016 Thank you NK and Ebony. I'm all prepped in the admissions room but got a few people ahead of me first. Feeling strangely calm though.

OzRoo 1,492 Posted September 18, 2016 @@novemberkilo Best of luck for tomorrow! Hope all goes well for you It is great that your op is early in the morning! My admission was at 2 pm, and I didn't get operated on till 7 pm. At least the pre-med drugs I was given, put me to sleep, so the wait didn't seem that long ..... All the best!

novemberkilo 10 Posted September 21, 2016 Well its day four post op. I got discharged yesterday and now I'm back home. I must say....Day two was a whole lot of nausea and vomiting....could barely keep anything down, not through lack of trying....yesterday I vomited once and that was late at night. Managed to keep down a bit of fluids but probably need to up my intake a bit. See how today pans out nausea and pain wise. 5kg down so I'm pretty stoked about that as well....the little bit of pain I am going through now will be worth the extra time I get spend with my family. ????????

OzRoo 1,492 Posted September 21, 2016 @@novemberkilo Were you given any Zofran wafers for nausea? Hope it gets better for you, otherwise call your surgeon. Be careful re dehydration. I ended up getting Hydralyte (electrolyte fluid) for any emergencies, as I got badly dehydrated on day 10 or 12. It was a nasty experience. It felt like I was going into shock! Hydralyte fixed it in 15 minutes. Good luck with your recovery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
