Jusarte, I hope this passes quickly. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

How's everybody that had surgery yesterday doing???

I hope those that had surgery are doing very well. I check into the hospital tomorrow, for surgery Thursday! I will try to give updates as soon as I can. This is getting very real! I am ready though, I want my life back!????

Surgery in the morning nervous and excited.

Had my surgery on the 21st. Came home today around dinner time. I'm already feeling more normal since getting home. I did end up with a drain because my spleen got accidentally nicked so the drain is for my bleeding spleen. Other than that the gas pains are uncomfortable but the whole process was more tolerable than i was anticipating !

Should be going home today. Entering phase 2 today, clear liquid & shakes. Some pain, but tolerable with meds. No bloating, no nausea. Having the Biotene spray was a plus! Feeling good!

Great to hear ANewMe9/21. I am at the airport waiting for my flight now!...eeeeekkkk. I am excited and a wee bit nervous.????

I'm still very sore. I sleep on my side and last night I rolled over onto my stomach and that woke me right up. One of my incision spots is really hurting more than the others.

I'm having trouble swallowing anything without it giving me a lot of pain. The tiniest sip of water or protein drink hurts me really badly. I think it's because of the gas. I need to get up and walk some more. I'm going to my primary care doctor in a few to talk to him about it.
