Surgery - What to expect? :/ TMI!

I've had a ton of surgeries in my life but this one is taking the cake on getting me nervous! I'd rather go back through spine surgery then this one.

Don't get me wrong..I WANT to do this...I NEED to do this but can you please share your surgery experience with me? How did you feel after and what should I expect when it comes to pain? Any other info you can give would be great too! :)

I'm freaking here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm also nervous about them cutting part of my stomach out. It's just a weird thought!

The drain is more of a hassle than anything else. I will have mine in for about 9 days and my husband drains it for me. I haven't used much of my pain meds because it taste awful but the pain hasn't been that bad. Good luck!!

They really do taste awful! I only take when I really need it. Mostly in the evening just before bed. The liquid one they gave me in the hospital, just before I left to make sure I could tolerate it, I thought was going to make me throw up. Thankfully the one they aent me home with is not as bad as that one but still gag at the taste. Lol
