Hey y'all,

I am out of surgery. Some sharp gas pains, but I haven't taken any pain meds so far. Will keep u posted.

Sip, walk, rest, repeat. Sending healing vibs out to you!

CONGRATULATIONS !!!! I have my surgery May 7 . Lots of get well wishes sent your way !!!

Thanks guys. I wish I could sip. They won't let me have anything till tomorrow morn. Still have a catheter. Yuck.

Congrats Carly!

I had no catheter, thank God. But when I woke up after surgery I was automatically hooked up to delauded<(sp) intravenously that I had control of with a push button. Good luck! You will be back home before you know it.

Happy Healing! I've read walking is good for releasing the gas pains in your upper body.

So great to hear from you!! Glad you are doing well!

Thank all, &Courtney,

They just got me up to walk around. Not so great with the catheter, but it's ok. Still no need for morphine- thank God. I was a bit nauseated a couple of times, but they gave me some med and it dissipated. I thought the morphine might make me dizzy and sick, so I didn't take it and frankly, haven't needed to.

Welcome to the losers bench...glad you made it. Keep walking, they should take the cath out when they are confident you can get up and go to the bathroom on your own. Look forward to more posts about your progress.

Sounds like its going well. Keep the updates coming.
