exactly!!! >___<

just had my surgery Friday and was on my cycle...Trust me it was not a big deal...they gave me some undies and a pad and the next thing I knew I was waking up from my surgery...I had to have a catheter so I was surprised when I didn't see any panties on but it really wasn't major I'm just telling you this so you would know what to expect...even though they offer you panties and pads I brought my own and once they took my catheter out which was the next day I was able to clean myself and put on my own things...you'll be okay and I wish you well

I second everything the last poster said....it's really easy to do and trust me I hate needles and shots but you barely feel it!

My surgery is in the morning and not only can I believe it's finally here but it sorta snuck up on me! At first I was so excited and I still am but after reading so many things about complications..even though I know everyone's outcome is different....I'm still freakin out! Some uplifting words of encouragement is really needed right now!

yes I woke up and couldn't believe it was over lol thanks a bunch and I gotta keep reminding myself to sip and not gulp....after hours of being not able to drink when I finally did I took a big gulp and boy did that hurt!

Hey guys! Finally able too join you awesome folks!! Congrats to us all!!

thank you sooooo much

lololol

Please don't psych yourself out like I did! My experience so far is pretty good...when I woke up from the anestisia(sp) I was in so much pain BUT as soon as the nurse gave me my meds it subsided...when I made it to my room I had a little button that I could press that would give me my pain meds but overall the pain is really not that bad I mean it's there and it's noticeable but honestly my back hurts more than my tummy....but you'll be okay!! Good luck!!

Hey guys I had my surgery yesterday and everything went great! Today I'm walking and can tolerate the pain thanks to this little blue button lol and the funny thing is my back hurts worser than my tummy! Good luck to everyone and I wish you guys well...I'm keeping all you guys in my prayers!!

Thank you guys for all the prayers and well wishes...My surgery went great and today I'm walking surprisingly the pain isn't that bad I mean it's there and noticeable but I can tolerate it!

thank you I most certainly will!!

I'm so glad you said that because I'm so ready to head for the hills!! I never been so scared in my life! I too was up all night lol thank you

Thank you so much because the support is so needed right now!!!

lolololol yes! I don't eat sea food or fish but that's like my favorite restaurant to go to just for that! but your absolutely right I'm do ready to change my bad eating habits

laaaaaaawd how I crave for some cheddar baked biscuits and my favorite Cajun chicken Alfredo!!!! lol please eat a biscuit for me

thank you soooooooooo much.... don't even know how much that helped me!!

So weird because I was worried about the same thing as my surgery is tomorrow too! The thought of not having any coverage is so petrifying even though I know that should be the least of my worries! Thanks for starting this thread and thanks to the ladies with all the advice!!

Oh yea!!! I said goodbye to all my favorite foods one by one...as they went into my tummy lol

Does anyone know what GNC brand of Protein mix I should get?

Thank you!!
