  1. Well, my surgery was only last week but I'm still wondering what happened to my knickers. I had a surprise visit the night before surgery so had been provided with hospital panties and a pad to wear for the procedure. When I woke up, I remember people saying "so embarrassing". When I got to my overnight bed, I realized I'd lost the knickers. When I got to the ladies room, I realized that I still had the pad...I don't even know how. Anyway, I can't help wondering what happened. Did they take the knickers and then regret it? Lately, I've been wondering if I might've "farted" during the procedure. I suppose I will never know.
  2. I think it will take practice. I find that I catch myself at the third swallow. So I pause to see how I'm doing. For me, there's a lot of retraining to do in that vein. Remembering to be mindful and chew slowly and thoroughly is next I imagine. But then again, I think that slowing down will help so I can still "enjoy" food with the few bites I'm imagining being able to tolerate.
  3. Oh, yeah, and I noticed blurriness last night. I was tired too.
  4. Mine was scheduled for the 12th...and it happened. Now I'm focused on trying to do everything just right for the best possible outcomes.
