It's official... I am POST-OP!!!
Jul 27, 2009
Surgery is done and over! I'm sore & tired. I have my post-op follow up appointment Friday am. I seem to be healing well, as I had expected that I would.So glad that I told them that I had bad experience with anesthesia with my hyster surgery. Before I went in for the RNY a nurse placed a patch behind my ear to prevent Nausea. Additionally, they added meds to my IV line that would also prevent the nausea & vomiting. IT WORKED! no problem with it. I did sleep very deeply and don't have any recall of the OR- recovery room or even of the trip back to my room after surgery. I woke up later that evening in my room with my hubby sitting right there. It was a very pleasant way to wake up.
Since the drugs were so powerful I kept drifing back off to sleep and he had a chance to escape from the room and head home. HE was exhausted! I opened my eyes Just enough to see him quietly tip- toeing out the door!
I didn't have the energy or the inclination to speak so off he went to get his much deserved rest. The last time I had surgery the poor guy made it to the door and i woke up everytime and made him stay... DON'T LEAVE ME....
i would plead weakly... of course- he would turn around and sit back down. This time I was just glad to see him when i woke up and knew he need to get some rest so -- if you love something let it go.... and He came back in the morning! how sweet.... awwww
After all these years he isn't going anywhere! He's stuck with me! hahahaha
