Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

Have you ever seen the cat that someone is trying to put in a tub, but the cat doesnt want to get in so its clawing and has all four legs stretch out with its claws hanging on for dear life not to get in. Hmmm thinks that me. I maybe just a tad nervous

That is me when they are trying to send me home from the hospital, I like to stay;

You will do fine., If you weren't nervous then something would be wrong.

I'm up tomorrow! Can't believe what a new day can bring hoping and praying for the best, yet getting a little anxious... Idk how I'll sleep tonight!

I just had my surgery on the 28th. everything went great. no complications and I don't have any pain. hospital beds def suck though. but other then that I'm feeling fantabulous.. lol. using my spirometer to keep lungs expanding having my sips of water and just relaxing. hoping to go home this afternoon

Congrats! I had surgery on the 20th and went home the next day too!! Still doing great! I had to do barium swallow before I could drink the next day though.

Happy your getting taken care of :-)

Has anyone heard from simplySouthern yet and her status

Gen :-)

I was wondering the same thing. Seems like no one has. This is a long time to not hear from her. I'm really worried. I hope she is okay.

ah the 20th was my bday lol. glad to hear your doing good. keep up the hard and good work. so worth it in the end

Anybody always cold? I am always cold now! I am from Ohio but now live in warmer North Carolina and since surgery' date=' I can't get warm![/quote']

I am too! It feels strange as I've always been hot, hot, hot. I have been using warm milk or water to make my protein drinks warm. Lots of soup too.

I second Snows motion take a nap. take a nap ' date=' take a nap. You are still on the mend and rest is an important part of healing. Don't deprive yourself of that.

WIshing you the best.[/quote']

I will take the naps! There sure is a lot of healing going on inside.
