Hernia
I had mine repaired while I had the surgery. He told me without repairing it, they couldn't do the surgery. I haven't had any problems with it, and he didn't think I would have any after he repaired it. Good luck!

Hello Y'all! I have been running errands, then got my walk in (:clap2: :clap2: :confused: ) and now I have to get busy cleaning house. I swear my DH is worse than 5 kids put together!:help: Doc - My thoughts and prayers are with you! Let us know how things are going. I agree, he definately needs more than one opinion. Pat - I love games too, and I don't dare go there or I would never get anything else done! Sounds like fun though. I use incredimail, I love it! Tell your DH to forget Florida, come to Texas! You have a lot of gals here you could visit!:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: We have lots of golf courses here, and it don't rain/storm quite as much!:heh: Trish - Good luck on your test today! I'll keep all my body parts crossed for you!:heh: :heh: :heh: Eileen - Do they have you locked up today????? Calling Eileen, come out and play~:confused: :D Kelly - Glad to hear you are getting some time for yourself and Dylan. Dianne - How's the itching today???? Hope you are lots better!:confused: Cindy - Miss Hunter Woman! How's it going today? Anne - I bet you are sleeping much better now that you got the good news! Sherry - How's the eating going? Beannie - Any news on the job front? Patty - Are you officially hired yet? By the way, did you ever open the mystery box? Well, got to get busy, the day is half over and I haven't done much of anything. I want to get the rooms swept, and I want some time outside in the sun! It is so pretty today! (Sorry Kelly, sending you some warm winds) Later!

Eat Before Fill?????
I always go by the time of my appointment. If it is really early, then I wait, but if it is later, I eat something light, like soup, salad, etc. I usually have to do liquids the remainder of the day.

Post Op question
I had to do clear liquids for two weeks, coffee, tea, juice, jello, popcicles, and after three days a protein drink. You might want to check with your doctor's office and see if you should eat the other things.

Hello Miss Beanie! Glad to see you here today!:biggrin1: :biggrin1: :biggrin1: I don't blame you for waiting for the fill till you get back. OK, I'll be the first one to bite! What the heck is bubble and squeak? My ears are a little better today, at least I can hear a little bit better too! :biggrin1: I actually went for my walk this afternoon, gosh it was so pretty out! I am watching the Mav's game, so far they are ahead, but seem to be losing the lead a little bit more every few minutes!:angry Dianne - Sure hope that medicine works for you! Itching is miserable!

Hello Y'all! Just got back from the interview, it went pretty well I think. They gave me tons of tests and she said I scored very high, better than most people do and better than a lot that have been hired. She said it was very impressive. (So, just hire me then) She is sending it on over to the place and hopefully I will get called. I am sick of interviews! :biggrin1: I am definately not the suit/heel person!:eek: Pat - I am a little bit better, it really does take me a while to get back to normal. I have terrible ears when I get water in them. They are ringing and I can barely hear, but the thobbing pain is gone for now anyway! You sound like me, I told DH I wanted to get a breast reduction and he said "they sure would have to do a lot of cutting!. (DDD) I still would like to put them back where they belong though! :D Trish - My SIL is a nurse, I know how much studying you are doing, and I feel for you! It will definately be worth it in the long run, they sure do make the money!:clap2: If I had it to do over, I think I would have been a nurse too. Eileen - Sorry you have to do some work today!:biggrin1: Glad to hear you MIL is doing better. My Aunt just had that same kind of surgery done. She was in really bad shape though, they almost lost her several times. She is in rehab now learning how to walk again. I hope she doesn't have another backset. Donna - I'm glad to hear you are doing better. Boy, I love Mexican food too! I think I could eat it for every meal. Good Luck with the interview tonight. I do lots of things, accounting, billing, secretarial, payroll etc. Heck I don't care what it is right now as long as it's a good job!:heh: :heh: :heh: Anne - Wow, that is good news! I am so happy to hear that! Kelly - Hey girl, you need a break! Forget the housework and take it easy for a day. Things will get back to normal soon! Sherry - It sounds like you have a lot of restriction! When you eat pureed foods, just take some smaller sips and let it have time to go through. My problem is they go through too fast! Well, got to run, errands to get done and I sure would like to get a walk in yet today, I don't know if I will get to or not. Later!
