Hi everyone who is having surgery in October 2014. We can start a new topic for those of us who have had surgery already.

This is the spot were we will all end up, were we'll share our stories and recovery. It will be a new dawn for so many of us. Let's stay close as united we will conquer anything that comes our way!

BEST WISHES GLADIATORS

Ooops, didn't mean to send that yet. I will say, it feels amazing to have it gone! ! It literally lasted probably 3 seconds. But not something I ever want to have again in my lifetime! :-)

I remember having mine out it was surprising, weird, painful and painless at the same time.

Oh no @@amylynns I get mine out Wednesday. Maybe I'll take some pain meds prior to my visit. I've been very nervous about having it removed. I'm also going to be so excited to have it GONE!! How do you feel now?

I don't mean to make you more nervous about the drain! :-( sounds like a couple others had it out with a different experience than mine. It's over super quick, but pain meds might help.

Herrrooo everyone,

Tomorrow is my day and I will come and join you on this side. 2:30 PM surgery

3 days with nothing but Clear liquids does wonders on clearing the mind.

Finally @ Beni Your Day Has Come. I am excited for you! Tomorrow will speed by & before you know it you'll be sitting pain free in your Recovery Bed.

To our Queen Gladiator I'm wishing you a safe surgery & a calm pain free recovery. Enjoy the ice chips & being taken care of by the nursing staff. Your moments away from becoming the Best You Ever!

Does Gas X not work? That helped with all my trapped gas. Chewable.

Both worked for me: milk of magnesia and gas-x. But watch out for milk of magnesia trading you the gas relief for diarrhea cramps.
