And coughing is the pits - OUCH

:biggrin0: All day I've been itchy all over. Has this happened to anyone else? Is this normal?

Came home from the hospital this afternoon. On pain meds, so it's not too bad. The worst part is getting out of or into a chair or bed. Very painful. Once I'm sitting or standing, it's not too bad. They gave me protein shake in the hopital before I left. I can tell that it's going to take some effort to get enough fluids in. - I really don't want to throw up. Wow, pain med starting to kick in, all post again later.

Hey girl. How are you feeling? Thanks for checking up on me and for the well wishes. My surgery went very well. Had it yesterday at about 9 AM and left the hospital today at about 10:30 AM. I'm happy to be home. I walking pretty well, and trying to get liquids and meds and protein down. It's not easy. Getting in and out of a chair or bed is brutal. Besides that, I'm itchy all over. I'm not sure why. No rash, just itchy. I'm going to see if there is anything posted on this forum about that.
Thanks again,
Terri

70% of my stomach is gone! - Update on BandMomsRock
BandMomsRock posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
This is Terri's husband, Alan, reporting on her behalf. We arrived at the hospital at 7am this morning. By the time all the prepping, etc., was done, she went into surgery around 9:30am. (The worse part of the pre-op was getting the IV in! First nurse had a little trouble and left a bruise. Second nurse had no problems.) Her surgery went very well. A nurse called me on my cell phone at different times during the surgery to let me know how Terri was doing. Afterwards, the doctor spoke with me and said that everything went fine and that there were no problems. We got settled into a recovery room around 1pm. It's currently 3pm and she's groggy and on pain meds but doing fine. Terri asked me to thank you all for your support and prayers. And everyone scoot over on the loser's bench! -

Had an appointment with my surgeon today. All of my pre-op tests were fine and my surgery is acually going to happen on Monday. Yikes - I'm feeling a little nervous right now. So many changes to make. i hope it's not too overwelming. I was just given all kinds of stuff to read and information to process. I'm pretty sure I'm confused. :thumbup1:

Wow. Congrats!! You've done so well. -
Start Liquid Diet tomorrow. Tonight I had a delicious dinner from Applebees. Had Steak with Shrimp and Parmesian. - Yum. :thumbup1: Can't believe I'm starting my liquid diet tomorrow. Surgery is on Monday. Time is starting to fly. I must admit, I'm getting nervous.
