I am just numb. I am on my way to the hospital at 6pm UMPC Greenville PA, Dr. Christopher Meyers my surgeon.... prep starts at 7:30am, surgery at 9:30am I cannot believe I am really doing this, but I have God on my side and if it is his will I see all of my surgery buddies on the losing side. God bless and good luck and a speed recovery and no complications and after surgery we can move from pre-op to post-op. I am praying for us all:

I have my surgery is on Wednesday the January 16th. I was in high gear anxiety mode on Saturday what was fine yesterday. Today I want to finish packing, paying bills, making a last minute phone calls to doctors offices, etcetera. I also want to make sure I have a good grocery list for my husband. Tomorrow I spend in the bathroom lol and then Wednesday will be here before I know it! My only fear at this point is of picking up the flu well I'm in the hospital. I swear I have never gone to the hospital without being sicker when I left!

Hello all... Had surgery 1-9' date=' got home saturday from hospital. I had to stay an extra night cause I started running a fever. Was on HBP meds before surgery but had extreme low BP post surgery. So I came home off my BP meds. Wow!! I am having pain, trying to stay on top of my meds so it doesnt get bad. The worst thing so far is the phlegm you get in your chest/throat. You have to get it up and it hurts to do so. I can not swallow pills very well because if it. My tastebuds are whacked (anyone else?) Everything is absolutely gross. I just been trying to get Water in. Hows everyone else from surgery last week? R u on liquids? ?[/quote']

Happy everything went well for you! I had to stay and extra night too, my heart rate was irregular and in the 160's when I walked. That's cool no BP meds! The phlegm is gross but the pillow trick works, just put it over your belly! Gatorade was disgustingly sweet so I stayed away from it! I'm doing sugar free luigi Italian ice and water, tried broth but could only get 2 oz in then I was nauseous! Do you have diarrhea? I know that's a lot of info but I have had it since Saturday and its not going away

I was dry heaving but I had nothing to throw up it was bad

Everyone having surgery today, wish you all the best and many prayers going up! See you on the other side!
