Hey everyone! I am lying here in my hospital bed and thought I would check in.  My hubby is great and brought my comeuter to me for my stay.  I woke upthis morning and really freaked out and told mom I didn't want to do this anymore so maybe I could just stay home.  She said no way.  When I got here I told Dr. Davis I changed my mind and he reminded me that we have been fighting too hard to get my approval so I couldn't back out now.  I actually went back by 7:45.  I wasn't supposed to head back to the OR until 8:30.  I cried the entire way there and I was shaking so much the nurse thought I was cold.  Juse nerves.  Once I was on the table they got meunder anesthesia and I don't remember anything until I woke uo sort of in recovery. They brought me up to my room long before I was really ready but oh well not the worst thing ever. I was so nauseated I cried for hours and everyone was tryingto help but nothing did.  I am still pretty nauseated but I am trying not to think about it too much.  Anyway since I slept all day I am afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight.  I hope the nausea goes away and despite all the yuckyness of the day for my I am relieved it is done!!  (I had a revision today from Lapband to RNY)
