Day of Surgery!



Recommended Posts

As a preop newbie reading journals of people going through surgery gave me a way better idea of what to expect and now its finally my turn. My surgery is in a few hours and im hoping to give the best insight I can. Im on my way to the hospital now and im feeling really nervous. Im hopeful though! Ive been on a 3 day liquid diet which was what my doctor had prescribed. Its raining today and I love the rain :) ill update as soon as im able after surgery! Send prayers my way!!

Okay guys.... surgery lasted about an hour and waking up immediately after was very painful. It felt like my back and chest were in a vice. Do yourself a fqvor and ask for a heating pad as soon as you are able. Falling asleep while typing this so im gonna make it short. Thank you all for your amazing support. The power of your prayers and kind words helped me through a very scary day.

Update- my back is killing me I think its 60 from pressure and 40 percent that im unable to get comfortable. I sent my boyfriend to get a back massager..which feels good on the pressure pains. Going into this I want sure how much discomfort I would have..I had this idea that I would be medicated and comfortable, but there is only so much they can do. Still no fluids but im not missing food! More to come!

Its very true when they say every hour you get better. I feel very week and extremely uncomfortable but my pressue pains are gone from yesterday. I havnt slept more than 1 hour at a time and I seem to be reacting to my pain meds a but with itching all over. Ive started to feel my insicion pains more. So the first night has been a little rough but more uncomfortable than anything else. Ill let you know how tomorrow goes!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
