Thanks everyone, well I just got home, feel battered and bruised lol but hey I bloody woke up after my op which means I am ok xxx
I got to hospital at 6.30 am to be told I was 2nd on list going down at 11.30, this then changed to first on teh list so 8.30am then I was told no I am 3rd and last on teh list, I spent hours wondering what the hell i was doing there, and was it too late to put mu clothes back on and go home, was it really worth all this for a few stone of weight..... well I had my op at 3.30 it lasted 30 mins. I got to a ward at around 6.00pm, i was sleepy (very very very) so didnt know what was going on till 2am when i was wide awake and thought an elephant had been sat un my belly.
I had paracetamol which was vile and I threw back up lovely and very unlady like lol.
Pains in my belly/chest cant really describe where, but I got up and about and wanted to go home. My Ammori's "friend" Dr Newman came to see me and said I looked fabulous which made me feel great he said he woudl never have guessed that I had been stabbed 5 times lol. He said teh op went so well they shoudl have done it on the ward lol .....
I had water, then a few sips of horrible cheap coffee, then a a cup of tea , chatted with specialist nurse then dietician, took canulas out (I have tiny vains they said so I had two canulas and a further more 6 puncture wounds which the aneasthetist apologised for, gave meds to take home, heparin injections, fastabs. paracetaol, wound dressings. appointments for 4 weeks for fill and 6 weeks with mr Ammori then 8 weeks with dietician then 4 nonths with dr New I Had numberous wee's and hubby came for me at 2pm.
I am home in nightie with cup of tea waiting for my kids to be collected from school and cant bloody wait to hug them.

Its a funny feeling isnt it when youve waited for soo long then the thing that has been taking over your life has finally happened and you take a huge sigh of relief.
