Hello all!

My surgery is over and I was discharged on Sat afternoon.  I had heart rate complications and had to stay an extra day but that's it - no other complications!  My heart rate is normal now and I'm eating a bowl of sugar-free jel-lo banana chocolate pudding with a scoop of unjury for breakfast.  It's surprisingly good!

I have nevver fully appreciated taking a shower until this experience!  However my incision is itching and I'm going to assume that means it's healing - I'm not touching it.  Hopefully I'll have my post-op appointment this Thurs but the girl who does the scheduling isn't in the office until tomorrow. :(

I hope all of you who have had your surgery recently is doing just as well and for those whose surgery is coming up...don't worry about it.  Just remember that everyone is different on how they physically handle it and you won't know until the surgery is over - just stay STRONG!

Congratulations on your surgery and welcome to the losers bench.  So glad to hear you are doing well.  I am also recently post-op with no complications or intolerances to date.

Welcome home

Congrats!  Welcome to the losers bench.  Glad everything went well.  I had some trouble with heart rate too but am good now.
Isn't that the truth, I couldn't wait to take a shower.  I felt so much better after the shower!

Glad you are home!!!
