Thinking of you! Best wishes for smooth sailing and a speedy recovery. I found I needed to get up and pee fairly frequently afterwards and when I did I put my robe on and walked as much as I could, a little more each time. Figured I was up anyway! This really started me on the road to being a walker. Now I look forward to exercise and that is not the old me, that's the banded me. Plus I think it really helps with releasing any trapped gas from the surgery and just helps the healing process in general. Good luck today -- very exciting!

Thank you ladies! I'm in my room. I'm sore and my left side of my back is hurting.

I was getting the plication as well but due to scar tissue from previous surgeries, The doctor didn't do it. But other than that I'm ok.

Hi Ya Ya, so happy for you! Hope you have a good rest -- kind of hard with all the machines beeping and people checking on you.....

[The Icy One 518]

Hi everyone, my paperwork was supposed to be submitted to insurance on the 6th and we were hoping for a surgery date around today i am still waiting on a response from insurance so i fear i may not be in nov. :-( Kinda sucks cause ive gotten used to all these nov buddies..

So far so good! I have been trying to do some walking around the house. Right now I have gas pains, my stomach still a little swollen and from time to time I get a little cough.

[Tylerbaci 23]

Hi YaYa, Walking should help the gas pains. I took Gas-X one time and have been good. I do have a cough as well but thought it may be allergies. Each day gets better and better. I'm 6 days out and feel great! Relax and walk.
