Having Sleeve surgery May 2nd!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MSanti 52]

I think I have heard that some have and some havn't but from what I read- I think the ones that say they didnt have one- actually did they just took it out before they came to- my last surgery they waited till I was fully awake when they took it out- it is a little uncomfy- but no worse than the other pain you will experience- lol-they pull it out rather quickly so - it could kind of sting the first time you go pee- but Ive had them take it out and I was just fine-

I am crossing my fingers so that I will have your same experience with the catheter.

Is anyone else feeling tension as we near our date?

I will be fine until I go to the holding room. With all the other surgeries I've had, that's when I start to lose it. I hope they will give me something to relax me--especially if I have to wait in there very long. I think I can have two family members in there with me, so that will help.

I'm planning on staying very busy this weekend so it doesn't just drag by.

I thought my oldest daughter wasn't going to be able to be in town for the surgery; her car got trashed (windshield included) during a hailstorm in Knoxville Wednesday night. But fortunately she has found a ride home. YAY!!! Between classes and her job up there, I don't get to see her a whole lot so it was very important for her to be there.

Good luck.
