I'm so happy to be home!  

My surgery went well, no issues at all.  The day of surgery I was sore in my back and shoulders which is a side effect of the air they blow in your abdomen.  I was drinking and peeing right away and I was walking the evening of my surgery.  

All the nurses in Guelph were awesome.  I felt like I was in great hands through the whole experience.  

I came home with prescriptions for Tylenol 2, prevacid and a stool softener.   The surgeon also prescribed a blood thinner, Lovenox, which she told me today I don't need to take if I'm getting up and walking around. 

If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to answer them!
