ETA: If they didn't tell you, between now and the surgery, avoid fats as much as possible and you'll be a lot more comfortable.
Dee who did your surgery?


So I spent the night in the ER. The pain was so bad and it was getting to the point where I couldn't take deep breaths and I thought it was the gas that hadn't escaped yet. They did x-rays, gave me fluids in an IV (apparently I was very dehydrated), and then gave me Dilaudid (sp?) and some anti-nausea medicine. I slept like a baby and felt alot better. I did wake up with a headache but I think it's cuz of the way I was sleeping. I took a Vicodin (crushed up... yuck) and slept a little. Still have a headache but now I'm drinking Gatorade and eating some dry Kix and Honey Bunches of Oats. Feeling so much better!
