Hi all, had a bit of a rough journey. Blood pressure crashed during surgery so was being monitored closely. Had me hooked up to fluids but every time I got up I was close to fainting which was a bummer as the wind pain in my right shoulder was excruciating! Anyway did a blood test and they recon I had a post op leak probably from a port site so I was give 2 units of blood last night and am felling a lot better today but may need another tomorrow. This was most definitely not in my plan...........
Not managing enough fluid as then nausea is awful but I'm hopeful for a good nights sleep tonight. Oh and you should see my bruised tummy - very impressive.

Hope the rest of you guys are feeling well.

Take care

Hi there! I'm new to this site. I am considering weight loss surgery & thought I'd take to the forum for advice & suggestions. Just wondering what were your first steps to take up surgery? Are you going private? Do you have any advice? Thanks, Bec x

Oh ok that's not too bad, should only take me about 40min and that's with catching a bus and the tube.

Very scared nw, feeling like I'm going to back out when I get to the hospital.

Thank you, I'm just here waiting now, should be about 12pm.

One good thing. I've lost a stone and 4 pounds since my last appointment with the surgeon in September ?
 
Hi all. Sorry for not posting sooner. Took me a while to get ga and morphene out of my system. Still in a bit of pain from the gas but trying to move as much as possible although stomache feels like I've done 1000 sit ups. Should be going home at 4pm
