Anyone having surgery in Oct ?

I'm having my surgery Oct 5th my per op class is Sept 23rd. I'm getting super excited only thing that worries me is missing classes I just enrolled into two classes and they start the 14th I'll be missing 3 classes plus a whole week of surgery. Hoping my teachers will be okay and let me work it out so I don't fall behind or get knocked for missing class.

Surgery went good up walking tired and the gas pains are fierce thank you for the well wishes

I'm glad to hear you're up and walking. Sorry about the gas pain. Keep walking, it's said to help with the gas pain.

So glad it's over for both of you on to the new life????

Getting all ounces down is tough especially with gas and pills

Are you taking pills? I just didn't think they would have us taking pills. How are they making it tough to get your ounces in?

Had my pre op appt yesterday. So excited! Wednesday couldn't come fast enough! Hope everyone is having a good day and for those of you who have already had surgery, preparing for surgery today or starting your pre op, good luck to you all! I'm so glad to be a part of this group!
