I was banded yesterday, stayed overnight in the hospital and got home this morning. I'm doing GREAT! I didn't have any gas pain, or any nausea, it was great.

I was doing good getting the IV in and all, but when they started to roll me to the "surgery suite" they stopped by the waiting room so my mom could see me and I started tearing up. The anesthesiologist was WONDERFUL and told me he'd give me something to make me feel better. That's all I remember, I don't remember being rolled in to the OR or anything. I just remember waking up, and asking if it was done and did everything go ok. haha

I walked the halls about 6 times yesterday, and a few today. I barely have any pain, just the port site (largest cut) aches. I didn't need any pain meds in the day. The nurse did give me 2 little creamer sized cups of pain med to drink last night, and I was OUT! Woke up this morning at 7:30am, they told me I could take a shower, eat Breakfast and get ready to go! WOOHOO!

It's been great so far, I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I thought it would be MUCH worse! :w00t:

Congratulations!!!!

Way to go Goodie! I'm thrilled to hear how everyone does. After hearing such great stories like yours, it really helps to keep me mellow as I wait for my day.

I am so glad it went well for you. I did have a little bit of nausea and stomach pain, but other then that I felt great. I guess we where pretty lucky. I am so excited for the both of us. I look forward to seeing out progress.

Glad all went well and that you're feeling good...

Hope to hear more on how you are doing..
