Well surgery was today and all went well. A little now but not as bad as I thought. I guess the worse part is the gas pains immediately after. I was able to get and walk within 5 hours of being rolled out of OR. That was the best. Gas pains subsiding and now just stomach aches from the surgery. Best advise I got was to WALK.
FEELING GREAT and looking forward to continuing the journey.

Re: Surgery Complete
Congrats! I agree... I have walked, walked, walked and it was a huge gas reliever. I'm 8 days out and pretty tired so I need to push nutrition/liquids and make myself continue to walk, (HUGS)

Re: Surgery Complete
Poker Guy, what's up? Did you have a leak or something?
Please say Hi to the nurses at the hotel, Alex and Sergio for me. My name is Fredia (like the Mexican artist). That's how I helped them know how to say it.
