You really have put my anxieties to rest! Thank you so much for your helpful information on what to be aware of on post-op. You have given me inspiration to conquer my fears and take this head on! Your tips were awesome, walking, stay sitting up and gas-x. I know it will be so worth it next year at this time! Good luck to you on reaching your goal.:biggrin:

Thank you so much for your words of wisdom, both of you! I just joined this forum as I have no one to talk to during the whole process, this is great, I am glad I found it! :biggrin: Can I ask another question? I've created my "diet ticker" now how do I get it on here? :ohmy:

Smitten Kitten is right, I had to have the test done as part as the qualifications my insurance required. I also had to see a psychiatrist, nutritionist and cardiologist. It took awhile, but I did it:lol:

Hi everyone, I am so nervous about the operation and I really don't know why. I've had 2 C-sections and people tell me this will be a piece of cake! I've been on my pre-op diet and my surgery is January 28, 2010. I've heard after surgery you experience severe pain (gas), and soreness...is it really bad?? :biggrin:
