Hi all
I am back .
Am sore and tender but on the whole I am doing well . It was a strange sensation yesterday , feels like the day passed in a blur, I was taken down to theatre at approx 10am and was laid out on the trolley in theatre, the anesthetist put an oxygen mask on me as my bp was on the high side and it was just to regulate my breathing and calm me down which worked a treat, next thing I knew I was awake again in recovery , I was like wow its all over and thought me op hadnt gone ahead, I didnt need to worry as it had gone ahead it just zoomed by
After my stint in recovery I was wheeled back into the day care unit ward and my hubby was waiting for me with a worried look on his face, but when I gave him the thumbs up he smiled and knew I was ok.
After some bp checks and everything else all was well and then they allowed me to have a cuppa tea, yogurt (no bits) and tomato soup (was bliss) and as soon as they was happy I could keep it down it was adios from me lol
I came home and had some slimfast which I kept down and I did sleep last night but kept waking up to go to the loo (prob all the fluid I been drinking)
Day 2 of me being banded, I woke up and had a cuppa tea and about an hour later I had some slimfast, for this afternoon I had some soup (no added bits) and some juice through the day (little sips) this afternoon I have had a 100g yogurt (no bits) and a coffee and on the whole it hasnt been too bad. I had 40 winks this afternoon which was lovely and was undisturbed as well (no loo runs) lol.... The worst part about it is when I get up out of the chair or bed, I got some gripe water today for me wind (has helped tons) and I got some liquid multi vits and pain relief, having said that I only had one pain relief lot since I come out of hosp the pain aint that bad tbh. The gurgling sounds do make me laff tho, sounds like my bath plug hole. and I know when I had have enough to drink/eat (if u can call it eat) as my chest goes really tight and after a while the gurgling sounds or burping occurs and then the tightness goes.
When I come round from the anesthetist I thought to myself wot have I done:cry: but that was just the groggyness talking but I am glad I been "done and dusted" and bring it on what ever happens next .
Thanks for all your comments on the post that my daughter did for me last night, I just wanted everyone to know that I was ok and home.
P.s forgot to add that surgeon gave me a band card and I not been sick at all either
Thanks in advance for reading - All the best - MeJulie x x
