Hello everyone,

I had my IVC filter putting in today through my groining area. I am a little sore but other wise okay. I do have to have an ice pack on for it. I can take the dressing off tomorrow a shower but i will have to cover it back up after the area is cleaned. TUESDAY the 17th of JULY is the big day and I have big nerves too. I had nerves today but I guess they took that away. It is amazing how you wake up and you do not know anything its almost weird. I woke up just fine with no problem and I am just waiting til next week. Is there anything I need to be doing.

I'm a little confused. You had the surgery already? When?

No I had a IVC filter put before surgery on the 17th to catch any blood clots that may develop. I have to be at the hospital @ 5:30 on Tuesday July 17th.
