I'm sleeved!! I can hardly believe it! The surgery went really well! I had a hard tim coming out of the anesthesia, but other than that its been great! I had a lot of pain when I first woke up, bu now, its limited to the left side of my abdomen! Thank you for the prayers! I'm ready to rock my sleeve!!!! <3

(Sorry if this is jumbled...the morpine I'm on is good stuff!)

Yeah Dana!!! So glad everything went well! Now just take good care of yourself and you will ROCK YOUR SLEEVE!

Congrats!! Glad to hear you are doing good! I am happy for you! Did you wake up with a tube to breathe or not? They told me I might and I am freaking out!

Yay and congrats! Let your new life begin.....

Thanks. Girls!

DazyKrazie - I was intubated but they inserted the tube after I was knocked out and removed it before I woke up. I did have a large tube in one nostril when I woke up because I had a hard time waking up but I don't think that's normal!

Wow...are you really posting on the day of your surgery? Amazing....congratulations on having everything go well and get some rest now! :sleep4:

Beading nurse - thanks! I am posting (from my blackberry) because I feel that good! Pretty woozy from the pain meds. I have to walk one more time tonight, then I'm going to sleep!

WOW You sound great! Awesome! Congrats

Rock it girl! Looking forward to hearing your progress!

My surgery is tomorrow morning and I was really hoping you would post today! You give me confidence because I am getting a little but of the willies tonight. So glad you are doing great!

awesome disney Please keep us posted and glad you can offically be called a loser...

Welcome to the losers bench! I am happy that you are joining the rest of us on this journey to health.

Congratulations Disney Momma!!! Welcome to the loser's bench!!!!

Thank you so much ladies! Found out this evening that my fast bloodwork last week showed that I have diabetes! Whoa!! So thankful that I'm doing this right now! Healthy me, here I come!!

Congratulations! I was sleeved the day before you. Just got home. Hope you are doing great today!

Ok, I spoke too soon. I didn't take my zophran as soon as I got home and when I took my liquid lortab....I threw up everything in my little tummy along with a lot of mucus (I've had post-nasal drip all week). It was horrible. I threw up again about 30 min ago....so, I'll be taking my zophran on a VERY regular basis and I think I may skip the lortab all together.....It's too sweet or something....when it hits my tummy, it just comes straight back up. ICK. Praying things are better over the next few days. I have had the thought "what have I done to myself!" cross my mind over the last 12 hours!! I just keep telling myself, IT WILL GET BETTER!!!
