I had to stay an extra night at the hospital with a fever, high bp, problems of pain and nausea with the iv, and I thought I would roll over and die DAID from having the surgery. Once things got better, which took about 12 hours, I was literally a new person. I was so mad at myself that day for having had the surgery to begin with. I wouldn't trade it for the moon and all stars right now. I'm almost 12 weeks out and have a new life. Think about the fact that many have had complications and one day this will be but a very bad memory! I hope you feel a bit better already----iv fluids can really help. You are wonderful to keep us posted. Prayers going your way!

@YB things are pretty rough but I know I'll pull through. I've been hit with a big stick of bad luck!! I really appreciate everyone's concern & care for me! Keep sending prayers up for me!! :-))

Aww!! Praying for you to feel better soon! I am having Mine done today!! Those are the things I am so scared of!!!! Was it caught after you went home or before!!! Agian I am praying!!!! Take care!!!

I hope you are much better today. Saying prayers.
