Hey I am very new to the band. Got banded Dec 22nd. I got in 5:45 a.m after not sleeping all night out of fear i wouldnt fall asleep from anastesia. yeah im like very paranoid. my mom said i should be more worried about waking up after any surgery. yikes! anyways, I had the New York Times writing a story about me which will be published sometime in middle of 2011 so therefore i was rushed to every process I got in at 5:45 and was in the OR by 7a.m. Maybe even earlier. I dont remember exactly what time i woke up but i had such a terrible dry throat that i just couldnt breathe. The pain was a little bad but mainly just so unfamiliar. I was given morphene but that was a funny experience. My mom walked into the recovery room and for some odd reason i started crying my eyes out. i had no idea why. i kept telling my mom it doesnt hurt that much and im not sad but i dont know why im crying. I have a new nickname now.. haha. but anyways the staff there were so incredibly nice to me and i got a room within 20 minutes. and then all i wanted to do is sleep. my neck and shoulder pain was constant but i thought that it was from the hospital beds. I walked around a while which helped the gas and i left the next day at around 2pm. Got home and again just wanted to sleep. the next day was torture but now i feel like my old self. as if i never got surgery. im on the liquid diet and lost nearly 2lbs a day so i started 266 on surgery day and now im 252 im very excited. i been off the pain meds since the 2nd day back from surgery. i feel great and am at work now. cant wait to see whats in store for me next
