After surgery

Waking up it was very hard for me to snap out of it and realize what was going on. I think I had too many drugs in my system and to put me to sleep I still didn't feel well until the 4th week or back to myself was very Angry in that was not like me!

    I am having my surgery on the 29th and starting my pre OP dier on the 17th. From what I've read from your experience and others, everyone's experiences are different. I am hoping for an easy surgery,

I need 20% to be okay still. Not loosing! getting plenty of water and protein. No exercise yet still shaking and dizzy still in the house! Think it was on medication I was on before the surgery. The fasting before the surgery may me very weak I'm still very weak. It's like my personality changed? Crazy but true! My friends are like you're getting better! You can really tell

The same I was in the hospital for 5 days I think the thing is I'm not even sure! I have people here taking care of me and I was out of it I'm just starting to get better back to normal. They were trying to send me home from the hospital @ 2 days I was told my family is like you can't send her home like this! We are not taking her home like this! They save my life! [emoji173]

I am having my surgery on the 29th and starting my pre OP dier on the 17th. From what I've read from your experience and others, everyone's experiences are different. I am hoping for an easy surgery, but if there are hiccups along the way I have a small support system in place. I am glad to hear that your family are taking care of you, and that you are doing much better.

Yes Susie me too. I think it was the medication coming out of my system because I have a weak auto immune system! Feeling world's better. Plus I don't need all that medication anymore.
