Out Of Surgery

So far so good. I was taken back this AM @ 945. I am not sure what time they put me to sleep, but I woke up at 12:45. I was in recovery for @ 3 hours. I am I n my room and my compression stockings are hooked up to some machine kinda like a blood pressure cuff. They sent in a person and she gave me a breathing treatment and I have to do exercise every hour. I have a dull uncomfortable pain. I am in and out. I am thirsty has hell! Can't have anything to drink yet. Thanks for all ur prayers.

Xoxoxo I had to post even though I already talked to you. :-). I had the pumps on legs too for preventing blood clots. Nice lil' massage ;)

Yay SleevenChica!!! So glad you're well enough to post this evening. Been thinking about my 10/1 OctoSleevers all day! Take good care & I'll meet you on the losers bench in 14 days!!

Congrats fellow OctoSleever!

Hopefully you'll have TONS of great, fresh-in-your-mind post-op advice (and weight loss to report!) for us who are not until later in the month (Oct 25 for me)

Looking forward to join you in Loserville!
