Cindysc Don't freak out. It's not like that. I don't know what happened here, but I don't have the sharts (yet?) and and there were no birthday suits seen. Unless it was mine and I could care less. I was asleep. Lol

Who wants to see my stomach?
You got it. Just didnt wanna gross anyone out. Gotta say, it's one of the best pics of it I've seen. I looked for shots like this when I was PRE op and didn't find anything. Is it teeny tiny? I can try to make it bigger somehow. I'm on my phone and sometimes it posts itty bitty.

I'll wait til a good sized group of people raise their hand and I'll share. It's pretty gross and I'm thinking "buh bye"

Amytugs sleevy thread! Leavin 3/1!
Ps there were no naked people but I did see another person being worked on for a moment. In recovery I got to watch the screen of another persons surgery. Interesting but I was a lil queasy ATM. Dr. Garcia took a pic of my stomach but I didn't want to see it yesterday. I'll look today or see if he can email it to me. I woke up this morning in pain and nauseous but a lil meds cleared that up. I feel great now, bit i dont count on that to last. I have the window open and hear the birds and see the sunshine. I feel really halpy. I could cry. Ive wanted (needed) to feel hope regarding my weight for a long time and i finally feel it. Hope. I feel a lil hungry bit I think ya just acid. Also, don't be alarmed if you wake up in recovery spitting old brown blood. Apparently that's normal. My first was pretty red. Also normal. And I did that all night off and on. Eta- got a shower. That always makes me feel better too. I dislike figuring out unfamiliar hot/cold handles. Lol

I answered on the other thread. I don't think you're gonna give a hoot about your hair between the pain, nausea and sleepiness.

Dr. Fernando Garcia
In my experience, you probably won't care what you look like. I've had quite a bit of pain and I'm walking the halls with no bra on because at the moment, I just don't care. Ponytail instead? Oh and for me, it's doesnt feel great to lift your hands up that high.

Amytugs sleevy thread! Leavin 3/1!
Hola! I'm feeling ok. I've had her refill me up on pain killer 3-4 times now. It's the darned drain. I'm positive I'll feel better when they remove it. The tramadol(sp) sucked and I asked for something else. This works way better and (knock on wood), not much nausea at all after the switch. I'd read about the tramadol causing nausea in some. I'm super sleepy. Gonna run!

Hey guys! My alarm was set for 2:30 am but I woke up at 2:22 and turned it off. My stomach isnin knots. I guess this is it! Edit: I'm sitting here at our tiny airport. I got here way too early. Yawn. They don't even open the security line for another 35 minutes. It's 5:11 am and I'm exhausted.

Amytugs sleevy thread! Leavin 3/1!
Thanks for all the support and prayers, friends. This is so real now! Exciting! I will not get lost at an airport. How I wish I didn't have a 3 1/2 hour layover. Sigh. Still worth it.

Cold 8 days pre op.
I fly out tomorrow and posted similar to this tread yesterday. Take a bunch of Vitamin c stat! That seemed to clear mine right up! Tijuana here I come! I think they only cancel for chest congestion. I could be wrong.
