My surgery is tomorrow @ Virginia mason by Dr Jeffrey Hunter

SpaveDust, so far so good! Surgery went well, mo complications and with an hour or so post-op ibwasbup doing laps. I have discomfort when intake andrii, But its not horrible I've had so far 24 ounces of Water.

One thing to beware if - I'm an ice person. I love chomping in ice. They caught me at the ice/water station and totally busted me before I could have some. Apparently ice can make you tummy spasm. So all I've had is room temperature bottled water

As far as the staff. They are all fantastic a little noisy at night, but with some meds on board I got some rest. I haven't had a lot if pain. The night nurse insisted I take pain meds every 4 hours. I suppose that's not a bad thing though.

Itsme.. Glad to read you're doing so well! Congrats!

And goodness me.. If you don't need the pain meds then tell her so..! Unless it's an OTC pain reliever, Don't let them push narcotics. I'm a firm believer they slow down recovery, or at least slow you down from getting back to normal living.

Again.. Glad your doing well, and hopefully we all can gather some day

Poodle Dog is the restaurant/bar in Fife.

I think there is a sleeve support group that meets there the second or third tuesday of ever month

Hi there... yes I normally go to that meeting... I had to work on the 14th but hope to be there next month. It is on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. Great group of ladies! We could use some fellas though if any of you dudes want to add a little diversity to the group...
