Good luck!!

Office just called my date has been moved back to Wednesday 10/24 cause surgeon needs to be out. I originally had it scheduled for this date but it was early in the morning(like) now it's at 1pm :o but that's okay after it's all said and done i'll be dropping it like it's hot :lol:

Hey Everyone,

So I am NOW HOME from the hospital!!! So happy to be back home. My goal (doctor's request) is to drink 32oz of liquids a day. OMG, not easy. I've been sipping since i got home. I've also taking some pain meds because i did a lot of walking today (from hospital bed to car right outside the hospital). According to my doctors that's a lot :mellow:.

Right now i'm in the bed relaxing and sipping. If anyone have any question, please let me know. :D W

We are all in this together!!!!!

I've added a picture of my incisions in my photo gallery if anyone is interested. I will take some more this evening..

Awesome that you are home! How are you doing pain wise? I think that is my biggest fear. :)

Since I'm new here, how do we see people's pictures? How's your pain? Do you find it hard to fit all your liquids in?

In the hospital I was on morphine and I could only press the button every 20 mins which felt like hours when in pain. The first day was the hardest. I couldn't even think. To this second all I can remember is pain all day Monday. Now I'm on Oxycodone which has help alot since being home.

To see the pic you have to go to my profile and click on gallery. Just click on my pic and it should take you to my profile.

Pain is not so bad now, but I'm still taking pain meds when i feel pain coming on.

YES, i find it very hard to get my liquids in. I couldn't drink 16oz of liquids while in the hospital so to double that is harder. But I've been telling myself to sip sip sip.
