Today is the beginning
Apr 27, 2011
So today I started my preop liquids....it's now 10pm and I have a headache....probably from sugar and caffeine withdrawal. I had a meal replacement (Chike) shake for breakfast and lunch, cream of chicken soup for 2 snacks and chicken soup Unjury protein for dinner....and so much Crystal Light I lost track.My good friend had her VSG today. I went to see her and she did well. She is very prone to nausea and as soon as she swung her legs over the side of the bed to get up and walk, she felt horribly sick. We waited for what felt like 30 mins for the nurse to bring her meds (we called twice). I'm not so impressed with that and I'm concerned because I will be there in 2 weeks! Perhaps the nurse was overwhelmed or just slow.....maybe I will get a different nurse.
Well, I'm hoping against hope that I might get a little sleep tonight after tossing and turning all night....like most nights. Sometimes I wish I had done the sleep study and got the damned CPAP....I'm sure I have sleep apnea....hence the sleepless nights. I'm also hoping my 25 minute walk on the treadmill will help.
So this is starting to sound like a diary or stream of consciousness, more than a blog.
Anyhoo.....that's my latest!
