My surgery had been reschedule a couple of times, but it finally happened yesterday. Everything went smooth but I had to stay overnight because of the sleep apnea. I'm feeling tired and a little gassy. Going to take a nap now. TTYL

Congratulations Rai, welcome to the losers bench. I hope you journey is a good and easy journey. Do exactly what your doctor tell you to and dont try things too quickly. Walk as much as you can and drink plenty of liquids. BE PATIENT, dont expect too much too soon and start exercising as soon as the doc releases you to do so. Good Luck and keep us informed.

Heating pads!!! OMG, they really helped me with the gas. Walk as soon as you can, it helps too. I only took the pain meds once because they it put me to sleep. I wasn't in pain from the procedure but the gas is unbearable. I'm taking Maalox to help ease it.

I agree Rai, I only took the pain medicine at night to help me sleep. I stayed over night too because of the sleep apnea. Take the pain medicine at night if you can and you will get a good night sleep!

Congratulations!
