Well I learned that my body does not tolerate anesthia very well.. I woke up in intense pain and got morphine which helped.. Got moved to my room, walked from the stretcher to my bed and within and hour I was dry heaving and in intense pain I cudnt help but cry.. The dry heaving and pain went on pretty routinely so bout every 3-6 hours I was dry heaving... I was Gettin up and walking around inbetween and felt fine but once those episodes kicked in it was all over n it felt like such a set back..

Today Is The Day...

Well ladies and gents, today it my day. Today i get banded!!! Nervous?

Less Than 2 Days....
