How it works

  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

8 dpo

Feeling better everyday! The first week was pretty hard I’m not gonna lie. Never took any narcotics or opioids so I’m proud of that. Haven’t even took Tylenol in 2 days. The hardest part so far is not sleeping! I’m lucky to get 5 hours of that. No naps or anything either so it’s been draining! I can almost stand up straight but can’t really stand longer then 5 mins without feeling completely winded! I’m hoping I regain some stamina soon. I did have my 5 day post op checkup. Everything looked good including my new belly! I can’t believe how flat I am. Still have 2 drains in that can’t come out until I I have 25 cc of fluid or less for 48 hours. Hoping next week they’ll come out!

It happened

I had my surgery Friday at 8:30sm! I am so glad I didn’t chicken out. I don’t even remember falling asleep. I just remembering being in recovery. All that is a blur honestly. I didn’t leave the hospital until 5:30pm. The only crappy thing is I’ve puked twice. Probably from the GA. My mouth is so dry I tried to eat some plain toast but that didn’t work out. I’ve been drinking Gatorade and water. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll be better. I haven’t taken any pain pills. I’m proud of that because I hate being on any narcotics. I’m prettt sore but the pain isn’t as horrible as I thought. I’ve been walking around often that actually helps a lot. Can’t sleep for more then an hour at a time it seems which sucks but it is what it is. Glad it’s all done and I can just focus on healing!

Surgery is tomorrow

Not sure if anyone is going to follow this or not but I’ve found looking at Real self and other support groups helpful. I have to be at the hospital at 6am and surgery is at 8am. 4.5 hours was blocked for surgery and the nurse said he typically uses that fill time. I am absolutely anxiety ridden more because of going under general anesthesia. I just want to be ok for my 3 girls and husband. I wasn’t required to do pre op but I definitely did with my primary. Nothing was too out of wack except I had a UTI so I’m on antibiotics for it. I just hope everything goes smoothly!
