Surgery and TOM

Well, I am having surgery in 1 week, and I think I may be going in with a monthly visitor..... So not cool. What do they do? I am hoping it will come this weekend. EEEW.

I had mine too. Couldn't wear anything at all during surgery, just had a pad under me (ugh). But the nurse helped me put on my own undies and a pad (I brought my own) when I was ready to go for my first walk.

The worst part was when I had to pee, they made me put that stupid measuring cup in the toilet so they could keep track of my liquid output. So every time I peed I had to call the nurse and have them check it. I hated that, was embarrassing lol

I remember the measuring cup, ugh it's so embarassing to use especially when sharing the bathroom.

The cleaning lady flushed my pee!!!!! I had the hat that catches it then I cup to save it in til they came and documented....they were concerned my output was low so I was REALLY try to get my stupid ounces in, I'd finally got the cup up where they wanted it and the house keeper dumped it before they measured. I almost cried :P. they were nice enough to take my word for it though!
