So nervous

I leave for the hospital in an hour. So nervous my stomach is in knots. Had a nightmare that I woke up and they'd had to do my surgery open rather than lap.

    I'm doing well. About to walk. I'm sitting in a chair waiting on nurse to help me walk. They are a little concerned since my pulse is fast. Everything else is fine and pain hasn't been too bad since

Thanks everybody! So nervous. Sitting in my holding room - they are going to have anesthesia start my IV later since nurse didn't get it. She had a hard time just getting some blood. Already bruising.

They said I should be in OR at 9 or 9:30 and its 8:05 so nearly time.

Good luck and wishes for a speedy recovery !!!

When I initially woke up in recovery I was miserable. Pain was intense and I threw up. That was awful but since they started phernagan I've been fine. Just sleeping a lot. I wish they'd hurry up and let me walk so I can get back to sleep.

Glad u r doing ok!
