Surgery tomorrow 5:30 AM



Recommended Posts

Surgery is tomorrow morning. Im a nervous wreck and I can't figure out if I have everything I need for tomorrow. I am staying a week with my mom since I have a little girl that loves to be carried and cuddle just by me.

Tips to get thru the first week? And when did you guys went back to work. I only have one week off and I'm freaking put its not going to be a lot of time to recover.

Congratulations on your surgery, best wishes for a great outcome. Some people do just fine with just a week off, but 2-4 weeks is probably more reasonable.

I am sure your Mum will be a great help and your little girl will be fine, no doubt.

Congrats to the newbies! You really don't need much more than the clothes you plan to leave in, and some flip flops. I was only there long enough to be sleeved, wake up, walk, sleep walk some more, pee and leave. You don't really need much. a toothbrush. You'll want to take a toothbrush and a hair brush or a comb. I took off a month. It was heaven. I had a wonderful recovery. A rough 3 or 4 days, but after that, it was awesome. I used that time to not only recover, but to re-learn how to eat, and to do some hiking with the hubs. It was awesome. Oh, I said that already.

How exciting for you!! I only took a week off and it was fine. I have a desk job. Just don't over do it. If you get tired, rest. You won't feel so great the first few days but soon after that you will start feeling better

Good luck to you all. I'm 3 days post op and feel great. Home and resting and drinking fluids. No vomiting. Feel fantastically not hungry at all and ready for my new life to start. So put your nerves and doubts to bed. You're taking good care of your future x

      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.
