OMG Surgery Tomorrow (11-19-2015)

I have what I need for the hospital packed (or I hope I have everything!)

Finishing up work so others at my office can continue my tasks.

Just waiting for scheduling to tell me what time to be there in the morning. Surgeon states normal inpatient time is 30 hours if no complications. That means home Friday afternoon or evening. I have decided (LOL) not to have any complications.

Wow....almost there!! Am so stoked. How am I going to sleep tonight??

Congratulations!! I too am getting surgery tomorrow and anxiously waiting for my phone call from scheduling to get my surgery time.

I hope I packed everything I will want and need. I will be in the hospital for 2-3 days so we will see. Good luck with everything!!

Best wishes to you both !

I was sleeved on 10/14 and have already lost 34 pounds...it just melts off if you do as you are told.

You'll be surprised how fast the day will go by. Before you know it you'll be on the other side! Congrats!

Can't sleep. Did anyone else just toss and turn the night before surgery?

I was able to doze for a few hours. Still feel like I got no sleep. Showered, dressed, ready to go. 40 minutes till leave.

Surgery went ok, a few hours delayed. Spent Thursday and Friday night and released to go home today (Saturday) around noon.

Won't lie, the first day was rough. 2nd day not much better. But Saturday morning early (like 2am! ) I got a change in pain meds that eased the pain and let me sleep. Woke up sorta refreshed and spoke to the surgeon. Said I was progressing nicely and could go home. Didn't take me long to pack up! Home sweet home!

I'll go back to lurking. Nice to meet a few folks. Goodbye.
