How many surgeries have you had?

Wow, I didn't know they did tubals throught the belly button, that's awesome. I had an exploratory laparotomy and they took out one of my fallopian tubes, I was curious if that pain is similar. I was cut all the way across the pubic line (horizontally) and that was hard/painful for about 4 weeks. I had to walk around hunched, slowly, and holding my stomach (the pouch part) so that it wouldn't pull on the incision. I definitely couldn't sleep on my stomach for a loooong time. The scarring is pretty visible too, luckily it's right where the crease is for the pouch aka the "butt in the front" LOL

Well i*****: I had a c-section my daughter 1995: I had a c-section my son 1997: I had a c-section my son 1998: I had my gall bladder removed Laproscopic 2000: I had a tubal I know I haven't beat you but I'm ready for this!!!!!!!!!!!

the lap RNY was more difficult than one of my sections, but a lot easier than the other one. So go figure! LOL!

I hear ya!!

1986- surgery on both knees at the same time 1991- surgery on left knee 1993- surgery on right knee 1994- D&C (after 3 miscarriages) That's it so far, soon I will be adding 2005- Lap RNY

Your question made me think. I had never thought about how many surgeries I've had. 1980 Tonsils removed 1986 surgery on foot 1993 surgery on leg 1995 partical masectomy 1997 c-section 1999 c-section 2002 c-section and tubal ligation july 2004 carpal tunnel release rt hand aug 2004 carpal tunnel release lt hand Late 2004 or early 2005 hoping for WLS

And I thought that I was the only one. 1983 - Breast Reduction 1990 - Tonsilectomy 2000 - Heart Surgery 2002 - C-Section 2004 - Lap RNY (Oct 25!!) The breast reduction was the most painful, and (believe it or not) the heart surgery was the easiest. Kristen
