    Hey everyone!
    Newly banded as of yesterday!
    Surgery went well. The worst part was being doped up and having to walk over & do x ray with a barium swallow. Gross. X ray showed a big air bubble that was very very uncomfortable. About an hour later or so while getting dressed to go home I threw up, which I think really helped get that air bubble to pass lol.
    Before that, a strange thing happened. I swear I started to regain consciousness when they started to work on me in the operating room. I heard lots of voices, felt stuff on my stomach and I think I started moaning or mumbling or something. I very well could have been dreaming, but it seems SO real! LOL it didn't freak me out or anything. It didn't last very long and it was not painful. I'm pretty amused by it, actually.
    I feel pretty good today. My abdomen is sore, and I think still a little gassy, but nothing too terribly bad. My ribs do hurt, but I think that's from sleeping while sitting up all night. Has anyone progressed to sleeping normally in bed yet? I plan on sleeping on the couch with all of my pillows again tonight.
    I hope everything continues to go in the right direction as far as healing and I pray the same for everyone else!

    dragonflies got a reaction from Spot in April 2011 surgery dates   
    Good luck to the April 4th surgeries tomorrow! Mine was scheduled for tomorrow, but I had to choose another date since I got bronchitis. I'm positive I will be well by my new surgery date - April 18th.
