iam going through all the pre-op hurdles for the lap band procedure.Honestly every time i think about getting it done i get so scared. i have a little girl and dont wanna leave her with out a daddy but i also wanna be healthy so i can be the best dad for her.To say the least iam in a delema.You are so brave iam very impressed with your toughness.God bless you and good luck!
Amy, the same thing happened with me with the drop in blood pressure. I don't think mine went as low as yours, but I stayed in recovery for a couple extra hours and then I was sent home...
Congratulations on this milestone! You look and sound great! You went through this with strong confidence. Wow your bp dropped to 80/30?? I watched your other video, and I must have missed the explanation...Wow...that "On Queue" thing they had you pull it out on your own??! Geesh....I am glad everything went very well!
Thanks! My blood pressure dropped because I don't need it anymore and they took me off of my medication when I was at the doctor yesterday. The OnQ wasn't that bad. All I had to do was take the tape off and pull the tube out. It didn't hurt or anything and they gave me instructions to do it too. It wasn't that bad, but I didn't know it was going to be that long! haha
Congratulations Amy!!! Welcome to the Loser's Bench :) Isn't the view awesome from here, hehe!!! You look and sound great!!! Glad everything went really smoothly for you!! Sorry about your gas pains. Keep up the good work! :)
Thanks girl! I do feel great. It was so weird right after surgery. I mean I was tired and slept really well but I was able to get up and do things around the house slowly. The gas wasn't too bad and definitely not as bad as some of the other people on here.
