Congratulations!!!!!!!!! How are you feeling?

I'm doing good, back to work this week.have been able to tolerate most of my soft foods, the reason i say most is because i had nausea and vomiting for the first time after trying a turkey sausage won't be trying that again for a while

I am glad that you are doing Okay? If you need someone to chat with. I am available. I am getting nervous. I have less than ten days.

Its normal to be nervous,I was a little nervous also but once i registered in i was fine because my family was there for support i felt plenty loved because i only expected my husband to be there but sisters aunts grandmother children and friends all popped up before i went back for the surgery, And it was over quickly.

So glad to hear from other Vanderbilt patients :) hope everyone is doing great ... Thursday is almost here .. I'm very nervous :/

You'll be just fine, let us know how you're doing when you feel up to it make sure you walk and take sips when on clear liquid and keep your compression stocking on when you're not moving around. ask for a patch to help with nausea they'll put it on before surgery
