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.

@@edie091371 I couldn't imagine recovering from surgery with fluid in my lungs. Did they have you start Albuterol or some other kind of steroid to help your lungs recover.

@@julbel721 no. They just told me to keep using my little puffer machine. Every half hour ,10 puffs. And it is getting better and better.

I feel your pain of being postponed my surgery is 10/20 and I am so sick with a cold I'm afraid they will cancel I just need this over with. My time off work is all planned out

Hey my date is 10/20 too

But if i was you i would call your surgeon office monday and explain to them how you feel just to be on the safe side.....because my friend was sick with the cold the day of her surgery and they postponed it for 2 weeks and prescribed her antibiotics

I emailed Ron's wife sherry and we have spoken twice via email. Last update was he was still in icu and that she will update any major changes... " Were hanging in there Ron is still on the machines and we still don't know when he will be off them but the Dr does say his lungs are getting better and its just going to take time"

but that our continue prayers are needed and appreciated that's quote was from a message on 10/15

Thank you so much for the update!

My phone just told me its 2 days, 9 hrs and 10 minutes until I report for surgery on Tues! Getting nervous but excited!

So I was weighed today I'm 10 days post op and down 14 pounds. Not sure if that's a sufficient amount. Anyone have any weigh-ins or know if I'm in the right track?

Does anyone know what page the "what to take to the hospital" suggestions are?

I am having a harder time with cold beverages...I do okay with room temp but we all know cold protein drink tastes better!! Is anyone else experiencing this??

I have trouble with cold now too

@@TristanNicole I don't know where that page is but I can share what I took. I took my husband lol a comfy pillow, a sweater (zipper) and something loose and comfy to come home in. I didn't know what to expect incision wise but ended up having to buy a sports bra to wear because I had an incision in between my breasts right where the bra band lays. I suggest a thick banded unwired sports bra. I got dry mouth the nurses will give you these swabs that help but a lot of people on here suggest biotene spray, I personally didn't use it but it's a great suggestion.
