5 Days Post-Op

I have really enjoyed reading about the experiences that the other "Banders" have shared and I thought that maybe I could put some of my own on a blog. Hey.. If I can help someone else out ...Life is good.

I had a relatively easy surgery. I went in @ 8:00 on Nov 12, 2009 and was able to go home by 4:00 that same day. Like everyone else, I wasn't sure what to expect....I mean we all went to the support groups and the classes, but everyone reacts differently.

I thought that when I took sips of water or juice, they were what I considered small. I found out just how nasty that regurgitation

thing felt. I have to really concentrate on drinking very slowly. I get hiccups(?sp) and I know that I need to slow down.

All in all I am very happy with my decision to have this surgery and I can't wait to go shopping and not have to struggle with sizes!!

Till Next time
