So yeah, I went for my pre op with the surgeon today. I was shaking as he was talking! I realized today that this is finally real. The last seven months have flown by but at the same time prepared me for this new journey I'm headed for. Got all my scripts at the pharmacy, of course they had to order the liquid pain medication but that's ok it'll be there Monday. Got all my instructions for Sunday night. Going to spend the weekend getting all my stuff in order and preparing and measuring out all my liquids. I will be on full liquids when I get home so that'll be a treat after all the broth and Jello I've had!

I'm so ready ???? Thank you!

I am a week ahead of you! Warning, I had a log of gas pain and had to keep on the nurses for pain meds. Also, Besides that, I was feeling great but didn't pass gas. No problem with urination. They kept saying 24 hrs, then it was 24 hrs from coming into ICU (I have sleep apnea, so they put me in there) Then after my second night, my doctor says everything else is good, not to worry, and he's sending me home. At 2:00 pm, waiting for my friends to pick me up, I pooped! It's been a long time that I was that happy!

Keep posting. I decided to vlog on youtube, DuodenalSwitchMan, since watching everyone's vlogs really helped me decide to save myself and do it!

I'm moving right along. I'm still pretty sore, just got home from post op. Had the drain removed and I'm down 8 pounds since Monday morning. I start the puréed stage Tuesday. Thanks for asking!
