Surgery 1 will be out of the way today

So I got up at 5:30 so I could have a cup of tea before my 6am cut off for all liquids.  I have to be there at 9 for surgery at 10:00.  Should be home in the afternoon.  DH is taking me.

The soap I had to bathe with last night and this morning is horribly drying and I feel like I am shriveling up.  I hate it.

I realized last night that I was a little anxious and wasn't at all before RNY which is a much bigger deal.  I think it is because I had so much less prep for this one.  I don't know what this lump really is near my bellybutton.  I think removal will be simple but who knows for sure.  I don't know if it will be a big incision, several small one, open, lap, you get the picture.  I don't know if they will use stitches or stable to close my head.  I just knew all the ins and outs of the RNY and I don't with this.

Anyway, thanks for all your swinging.  I'll let you know what happens this evening.

RNY on 10/21/08 with
Price - its very understandable that you are more nervous about this, since you don't know what it is.  The unknown is always scary.

Please do let us know how you are and what they find.  Still swinging critters for you!!

Price,
I think I threw my back out swingin' those lizards for you.
I'm sorry you have been kept in the dark about the details of your surgery.  Hopefully, they will explain everything to you this morning before hand so that you can rest comfortably.
Anxious to hear a good report from you when your're up to it. 
You'll be ridin' before you know it  
Take care.

Price,
I guess your surgery is finished by now.  Hope you are feeling good.  Can't wait to hear how everything went later today.
Good luck.
