Topic: RE: Surgery 11/17
The lady that did the echo said everything looked okay. I was told if I didn't hear anything back from my surgeon then that was good news and I should just show up Tuesday for surgery.
I work monday too. I have so much to do before I take leave. I hope I can fini**** up before I leave otherwise they will be calling me at home....

Hello Everyone,
Surgery went as planned! Yeah!!! I was discharged on Wednesday. I am in a lot more pain than I expected, just trying to do all the things I am suppose to. Hope everyone is doing well thank you for your prayers! Good Luck

Topic: RE: Finally found out the time of my surgery
Hey, Deborah - Glad to hear you are excited about your surgery. I am, too. It's 0730 on Saturday, here, which means it's 1030 your time and that means that in exactly two days, you'll be a new woman, because your surgery will already be done. I can't wait, either. Getting really excited. I'm not big on pain, but as they used to say in the Marine Corps - "no pain, no gain", so for gaining a new life, I can handle a little discomfort...Good Luck, Dear Heart

My surgery is on 11/16. I have to be at the hospital at 0530am with surgery at 0730am. We live about one hour away. May not even sleep that night. I'm ready and can't wait.
Good luck to you!
Good luck to you!
Topic: Had all your pre-surgery shots and test? Are you sure?
If you are still pre-surgery, make sure you check with your hospital as well as the surgeon's office to find out all the tests you have to have. I did my bloodwork, but when I called the hospital today to pre-register and find out the time of my surgery, they told me to come in a little early because I should have had a pregnancy test (a requirement for all women under 50 who are still menstruating) - and oh, by the way, since I hadn't had the flu shot or the pneumonia shot, they'd give me those, too. I got the H1N1 tonight and they'll give me the other two after I check in. They want you to have the flu shot and the H1N1 because if you are morbidly obese and/or have diabetes, it puts you in the group of those with compromised immune systems. My niece got H1N1 and from her description, it's like having a bad flu AND bronchitis or pneumonia, so I'd much rather have a shot or two than go through that with several abdominal incisions to deal with!
I know not all doctors and hospitals have the same requirements, but thought I'd alert you to find out if you need them, just in case.
