I'm so silly , posted this to the main board

Drove down to Eagle Pass Monday. Took about six hours. I stoped alot and looked at things.
Checked into the Holliday Inn Express. Nice motel.

Drove to Wally world, Lots of people. I'm from a small town and not used to the people. I was tired from the drive, stayed at the motel. Didn't eat past 11.30 per docs orders.
Got up got every thing put away and went do wait for Rosie the driver, she was there early. On the way across the border she showed me some historical interests. Prety cool. I really didn't see any industry to support the community but she told me there are utilitity plans, auto plants and I forgot the others.

Got to the hospital met Dr. A and his associates. Lots of nice people. We went over my medical history in Dr A's office. Went to the hospital did blood work, chest x rays. Took temp and blood pressure. A little while later they brought in the happy juce. That is the last i remember. Woke up in my room, Felt tired but ok.

Did pee a bunch yesterday, the first time I got up, a little dizzy. But after that ok. Dr A came buy that evening said it was Ok if I walked the halls, but I wanted to rest. He also said I looked quite good for just having surgery. < I bet he says that to all the girls

 nurses came in alot to check on my and change my IV. This morning I felt frisky walked the hall for the first time and am on the computer.

Will see y'all later!

Thanks so much for posting right out of surgery!!  My hubby and I are going to see Dr. A.  in March for our sleeves and it's great to hear your account so soon after coming off the happy juice!  You're too cute by the way!!  Anyhow, glad to hear you're up and about and feeling not too bad.  Keep us posted on your progress and how you feel when you get the time.  All of us pre-sleevers want to know what it's like....

Wishing you a comfortable and "easy" recovery
