Surgery in a few hours!

Hey guys! So I’m up early (4am here) so that I can get to the hospital at 5:30 for check in. I am a bundle of nerves, and even have quite the turning tummy! I hope it goes away once I get there! Anyways, I appreciate any prayers and well wishes for today. This is my first surgery ever! So I’m not sure what to expect. I can’t wait to join everyone on the losers bench! I’ve been working towards this for so long!! Well thank you guys and I will check back in later and let you all know how it went!! ???

    Thank you everyone! I was actually able to get an oral medicine that took away the gas in my chest and they did send me home. Now I’m on the road to recovery in my own peace and quiet. I appreciate ev

AshAsh, forward bravely. You know you can do this, center yourself on what is ahead and what you know you must do. You trust your surgeon, put your life calmly and peacefully into his care, you know he and his staff will keep you safe until you awake on the other side. No ?just Joy for the future.

Wishing you all the luck, you're gonna do fine!

Thinking of you!!!!! I know everything went well. :) keep us updated! Take care of yourself and get lots of rest!

GOOD LUCK! I hope things went well.

You'll come out of the other side of the OR doors a new person! Welcome to the club!

Thanks everyone! I’ve been so sleepy so it’s been tough to get on here! So yesterday was a little rough. Had a lot of nausea, even threw up once. Had very little pain at all. But today I woke up a new woman! I have little to no pain with the meds and I have no nausea. I’ve been up around walking and prefer sitting in my chair to the bed. The only bad thing is that I have to do the swallow test twice and I failed twice. For some reason my stomach is too swollen and it won’t leave the esophagus so that is my goal. Still no water so I can’t wait to get some!! Thank you everyone for your positive vibes and prayers!!
