Good Luck!

I got up and walked the first night, that was my biggest thing go slow but walk, help get the gas out! Don't over do it!. I was in hospital 3 days, I was able to wear my own gown and robe by 2nd day. COMFY clothes for ride home!!! depends on person I brought stuff to read but didnt touch it. I pushed myself on my 2nd day home wiped myself out for over 24 hours.

As the surgery gets closer, especially when you're in the hospital gurney right before they wheel you into surgery, you might start freaking out and questioning your decision. Try to remind yourself that you made the decision to have surgery when you were clear-headed, calm, and rational, and that a little freaking out now is normal. Fear is natural.
