Hiya just wanted to let people know you can take your earplugs out, no screaming occured!! i had my staples taken out today and it wasnt painfull at all.... seems i was worryng about nothing lol.... i now feel a free woman staple free....ooh and i got to keep the 13 mini staples lol xx
 
I dreaded having my staples out too & it was a non event in the end. It also relieved the pain I had in my biggest wound, so guess it was just a bit tight ... ahhhhhh :). Glad it all went well for you, sugar :) xx
 
it was a non event for me too... i went in thinking...omg!!! lol... then 3 mins later the nurse was like.... its over now lol... i didnt even feel it.
I also had some good news... on sunday one of my wound was weeping yellow stuff, so on monday i was put on a course of antibiotics im taking for a week... and today the dressing came off and its totally dry.. so antibiotics are working woohoo... i just had to have a plaster as a couple of wounds bled.. so all good xx
 
When you have Rny do you have staples or stitches?

It depends on the surgeon and the hospital, i dont think you know what your gonna have until after the surgery... but you can always ask your surgeon before the op to see what they will do xx
 
How are you now after surgery

i feel great hun, the first few days are tough... only because your tired and still full of gas and the anesthetic, and your trying to work out your fluid intakes etc...but every day gets easier and better... and after the first week your head clear and you start feeling better and better day by day... i have loads more energy, my clothes are feeling looser, my nails are growing and i honestly feel great.
So the first week you may feel low and a bit depressed as i did but that soon lifts xxx

That's good then that's what I'm hoping for but I'm really worried that my liver won't have shrunk enough before surgery

Im sure you will be ok, i was on a pre-op diet for 5 weeks before surgery, but most people are only on it for 2 or 1 week before... as long as you eat a sensible diet before the op then your liver will be ok xx
 
Well done for being so brave. your post made me smile thank you xx


Your Welcome Magsy, yourve not long had your op, how are you feeling? xx
 
I had glue!!!


ooh, its funny how we all had either glue, staples or stitches.. i wonder how they decide which way they put us together lol x
