Easterli, good luck with your surgery. 5 days and counting down. Are you nervous? I haven't been but reading some of these posts about jitters is rubbing off on me. I "Came Out" on Facebook, but I understand why some keep it private. I just wanted it out there to get support. Some family and friends who have kept it personal have reached out to me privately and I am so glad. Hope to read about everyone's experiences. Michele

I have been very nervous this week, but today was better. I think I was just anxious to get started. I have to be at the hospital at 5:0 - five hours from now.

Good luck to you all as well. Hopefully we can get some sleep tonight!!

Today's the day! Here we go.

Its here!!!! Woot woot

Hope everyone is doing well. I don't start until 1 but looking forward to hearing how everyone is feeling:)

Wow I can't believe the day is finally here!!! Waiting to be brought back now

How r u all doing? Pain? My tummy hurts alot. Feels like someone hit me hard right in the pit of my stomach with a baseball bat. And my throat is dry and hurts but the pain in my back is gone and I have no gas pain (knock on wood).

Hey everyone. Im feeling surprisingly great. I do have the gas pains and of course it feels likd ive done a million sit ups and have a running stitch in my side. But other that, im feeling good. Im getting in liquids, ive had herbal tea and chicken broth that im sipping at. Im now going to head down stairs here at the hotel to find a nice lounge chair to sleep in

We did it. Let our new life begin.

Hey

I have the gas pain.. Hurts like a Bitch!!! For lack of better word I have lil incision pain.. Got put on clear liquids earlier the broth smell makes me sick. So chewing ice chips... slowed down on the morphine made me feel outta my element... Hope everyone's OK... I'm going for a walk soon

Ah yes, a million sit ups is a good description while not moving but when I cough, walk or reposition it feels like someone James a baseball bat in my tummy.

How is your o2 doing? I keep holding my breath cause of the pain and it ends up plummeting to 80's.
