post op check up

Jul 18, 2012

 Just returned home from post op check up. 6 days ago I had my sleeve . Checked into hospital last Thursday, July 12 at 8:00 am. Was not nervous, even though I had been awake since 5:00 am. Had packed the night before, so I was ready. Got signed in, registered, and paid up. Was escorted to the preop area where I was weighed, changed into gown and signed consents. Nurses started my IV,went over all of my medicaions, checked my bp a dozen times, and drew blood. Then the anesthesiologist,nurse anesthetist and the or nurse talked to me and asked a hundred questions. The or nurse actually braided my hair so it would fit in the bonnet! Then my surgeon came in wearing a Florida Gator scrub hat , I said, " lets do this" I dont even remember saying goodbye to my husband! Woke up groggy aleady in my room!More later...
