    Dr Kim and his staff have been awesome. My recovery went very well. My advice for the hospital is sip, sip, sip and walk, walk, walk. The nurses told me that I was walking more and drinking more than anyone else on the floor. I was, not coincidentally, the first one able to go home of those who had surgery the same day. I didn't miss a second of drinking. Even took a medicine cup of water with me when I walked so I could keep sipping. Whether hospital or home I didn't allow myself to be down more than 15 minutes then I'd get up and walk. It takes work and detrmination but you bounce back so much faster. I had my surgery on a Monday. I worked from home on Thursday and Friday and was back in the office On Monday. I'll admit by mid afternoon I was pretty wiped out but I managed. The info Dr Kim's office gives you when you take your class is pretty detailed so it should answer all your questions about eating and stuff but if I can help at all let me know.

Cardiac Clearance

by rebecg17 on 01-04-2012 at 09:08 PM
Okay, so I thought all the hoops before getting final approval were done but after my stress test the Dr. office called to say that I have an irregural heartbeat (that seems scary to me). So i'm now going to a cardiologist for clearance and to make sure it is not anything serious.

I've never had anything like this. Aside from my weight I'm really healthy. That is part of why I'm doing the surgery. I want to do all I can to prevent future health issues. So I'm nervous.
