I met the Anesthesiologist, and 3 of the Surgical nurses; everyone seemed professional, courteous, knowledgeable...and had a sense of humor. I guess they need it to keep so many people from various backgrounds calm.
Once my procedure was completed, I vaguely remember answering some questions in the "waiting room", and climbing into my bed at the hospital.
Within 3 hours of my procedure, some women from my group were walking the halls. No, I wasn't being a weenie-man, I had my gallbladder removed as well, and My Queen (my wife is an RN, BSN) said to wait 6 hours :-)
I never felt the pains, nausea, throat tightness, or burping spells that some of the others on my hall were experiencing, and for that I thank G-D!!!
Also, Dr. Mario Almanza and the surgical staff!
