Hello girls!
Am at Birmingham Airport waiting for my flight home. I am OK, and when I last saw Dee at 7am today so was she
I experienced a lot more pain than I expected immeadiately after the operation and from about 10pm last night until about 3 this morning. I'd been expecting wind, and had it, but my wounds were sore too and I could feel the band 'hanging' in my stomach in that makes sense to anyone. Dee said to me at one point that she felt like she had been hit by a car and I suppose that is the best way I can think of putting it too.
I actually rang my boyfriend in tears about 11 and fear I worried him quite a bit. But from about 3am I have been mostly fine; there is still plenty of wind and I am in a little discomfort but nothing too bad! Have managed to cart my bag across Birmingham Airport so I can't be in too bad a state. So weight loss here we come
Dr Sig and the anaethetist (sp???) were great, as were most of the nurses. There were one or two that weren't QUITE as lovely as the rest but they were all nice. They let me stay until midday today as my flight isn't until 2.35pm. Although I was woken at 6 so they could take my blood pressure I slept for a wee while later which was helpful.
Thanks so much to all of you for all your good wishes, and particular thanks to Dee - it was so great to have you there with me and thank so much (to you and your Mum) for dropping in with me during the day. Sorry I was a complete whinger!!!
I know it's probably a bit late but good luck to Cowgirl, LancsLass and anyone else getting their ops in the next few days
Take care all and talk to you later.
Love Kaz xo
