33 days and counting!!!! Excited beyond words, dreading starting the liquid diet in 2 weeks. Who else is looking to change their lives in February?????

MONKEN......I am right there with you. The pain on my left is unbearable stabbing pain....I have already gone through my two bottles of lortab....going to surgeon today. I didn't have a revision though. Sitting makes it so much worse. I threw up some power aid last night and was sneezing this morning which totally aggravated the situation.....we will see what he says today.

On the bed with IVs in ready to go.

Praying for you Tursday peeps!

Update: my surgery was yesterday. Everything went great. I lost a little blood but not enough for a transfusion. It was a bit painful to get up for my first walk. So far no nausea. The pain is tolerable and now starting to get some gas pains. Had an upper gi test and it came back good. The catheter, hp drain and Iv is all out now. The taking out of the drain was such a weird feeling. All in all I am so happy that I had the surgery and that so far I am doing great.

I'm up next!! Surgery is in the morning. Have to be there at 9:00 for 10:30 surgery. Got so much to do and didn't get my will done (no I'm not anticipating). Almost on the losing side!! Good luck and prayers for speedy recovery to rest of the week surgeries.
