Just got my surgery date! So excited!! I got a call from the nurse yesterday and she said since my BP has been dangerously high at the last couple visits & at the exercise physiologists visit, their going to try to move the surgery date to October if any spot comes open! Yaay!

@vanwest83 I bet you're in surgery by now, but saying prayers for a smooth and successful surgery and an easy recovery. Can't wait to hear how it went!

Morning everyone! I feel like I need another weekend to get over my weekend! ha! Ok, more waiting for me. Will ask the surgeon for an update when I see her on Thursday. Today is PT again. That place smells SO badly of antiseptic...*sigh*

How are you guys? How are all the people who've already had surgery? Updates anyone??

I second that!!! Wishing you a successful surgery and fast healing!!!

We all need another weekend and a long vacation .. Bahamas or something.
Good luck with your PT hope this one is less stressing (tiring) than the last one.

It’s hit & miss with energy, boy oh boy! Today I feel like I’ve been drained of all energy!?? I feel concerned at this fatigue! Are you experiencing this too?

Yes! That happened to me last week; didn’t start feeling better until Saturday...hope you feel better soon!

Surgery tomorrow!!! [emoji847]

The ONE THING I would suggest getting (after my hosp experience) is a zip up or snap up mid length or long night gown for post op hospital stay & all the walking!!! It was the only thing I ended up using of all the stuff I packed!!!! Oh and a sports bra which is much more comfy while in bed & when up to walk!! I actually got a pretty cute one at Walmart! Who knew?!!

Surgery tomorrow!!! [emoji847]

You will do well! Best of luck, you got this.

You are post op aren't you? Are you feeling ok other than the decrease in energy?

You will do well! Best of luck, you got this.

Thank you for keeping me in your prayers. The hospital just called I’m to report there at 10:30am. I’m so anxious! It’s like when I was a child on Christmas Eve. [emoji847]

@1badassbiggurlHe's got ya hon! (hehehe - not Santa, the BIG Santa upstairs!)

Lol
Not sure if your asking specifically me that question, but yes I am post op, 5 days. Feeling weak but still manageable. I am running a low grade fever. Going to see my GP tomorrow. Otherwise I work each day getting all my fluids. TMI: exploding diarrhea on 4 day post op. It was 6 day before having an actual BM. Felt better afterwards. Walking has been a challenge, it's very cold out, and with my fever, I just shiver.
