Surgery today!

[hauntedhideaway 22]

I am now on the Loser’s Bench. So far it’s been decent. Low pain (yay!) but I am dizzy, even hours after the anesthesia wore off. Lying down make me nauseous. My BP is up, where it is usually pretty normal. My blood sugar was elevated and they gave me an insulin shot. I’m not super worked up about it, but I’d like to hear others’ stories. How normal is this?

I think everybody's experience is different. I had too low of BP for hours, no dizziness, super sore throat, no nausea or pain really other than a sore throat. Having said that, congratulations and I think you'll be just fine. 😁

Congrats! After my colonoscopy I had low PB, my VSG is scheduled for Monday.

So close, @lizonaplane! I'll keep my fingers crossed for a quiet, uneventful weekend.
