I'm home! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

IluvLucy · 03-14-2008, 05:42 PM

My BIL picked me up at the hospital today and I got home around 3:30 this afternoon.

My Dr. said I had a picture perfect surgery and that I should start seeing results immediately.

I'm still having problems with the gas, but every time I woke up during the night in the hospital I got up and walked the halls. I'm going to keep it up at home, too.

I'm so glad this is over! A woman I met who had the same surgery a day before me had complications and is still there. Hopefully she can come home tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for your prayers and well wishes. When the weight starts coming off I intend to post LOTS of pictures!

My cousin had the same surgery in January. She walked the halls until they sent her home. Know that you will be successful, enjoy the process and post lots of pictures of the new you. Our prayers are with you.

So glad that you are home!! I have a neighbor who is a nurse and she has also had the surgery. She said the reason some people have complications is they "forget" the doctors instructions. I am sure that you will do well......... sounds like you are on your way to recovery!!! Congrats & good luck on a new healthy start!!
