 Do you have a recliner chair? After my tummy tuck that is where I slept for over a month.. I did go back to work after 2 and half weeks.. I have a easy job... Lol..I was nervous too.. Dr Georgen is good Dr your in good hands.. I asked for liquid pain meds.. In my opinion it works better and I was always pushing the morphine while in the hospital..Just  think about how GOOD your going to look.. Nice flat tummy and SMALLER pants! I'm here if you need me! :)

When I had my RNY we were living in Mountain wis, you probably know where that is, about 11/2 hours from Neenah and yes that was tough, I thru up along the roadside, and continued to do that for the first month back and forth to Neenah. Now we live in Kaukauna about a 1/2 hour drive so a little better. I am really getting nervous about the whole thing, mostly the after part.

 I had my RNY August 23,2010.. My husband also had the RNY 6 weeks before me.. He had a revision for the vertical band gastroplasty ..My husband is a truck driver.. He is also the bread winner! He stayed  with me for as long as he could.. Then our daughter who is 28 yrs old took really good care of her mama.. My husband is very supportive! I wish we lived closer to Neenah..The drive home after surgery is just awful! I vomited  just about the whole way home from three out of the four surgeries ..

My RNY was in 2006 and I went to some of the meetings for a few years but have not for a while now.  I live about 45 min from neenah which isnt as far as you but really dont go there unless I have an appointment. My dear hubby stayed 2 nights in the hospital with me and took really good care of me after surgery and im sure he will with this one also, he is very supportive, how about yours?

 I had hardly any pain with the RNY. Do you ever go to any of the support group meetings?

Yes he did tell me about the drains, I think I have myself prepared for the worst then maybe it wont be to bad. I know I will have pain and be uncomfortable  for a few days. I was in terrible pain after my RNY, I guess I always think if I made it thru that I can do the TT.

 Did they tell you that you will have 2 drain bags. One on each side.. Dr Georgen has done 4 surgeries on me.. In my opinion there is  no one better! I live 2 and half hrs from Theda Clark..

Im 57 years old and really dont care about the belly button either was just curious how it looks. I have never strutted a bikini or short tops anyway. My husband says maybe after everything is healed I can get it tattoo back on.

 No belly button! I'm 46 and have 5 kids.. So no belly button was no big deal.. I went from from a size 10 to a size 6 after my tummy tuck.. Your pants will fit a lot better!
