Hi Everyone
Not sure where right place is to post these details so will just go for here for now. I know how helpful i found everyone's details of their surgery so here is mine.
Arrived at Spire Manchester at 8am having been told the day before that from being 1st on the list i was now in the afternoon. This was down to the fact that i needed my bloods re done ( last lot had passed their sell by date) and had to see bariatric nurse. I was fairly calm until then and the thought of waiting def was'nt helping my nerves. That said at 11am the nurse came in and said they were ready for me! Didn't have time to worry, down i went with a lovely porter to be met by the anethetist, it seemed like an age for me to go under and i remember hearing him tell me he was going to give me some more "sleepy stuff". I always was stubborn lol. Next thing i knew i was in recovery being driven mad with the itch from my nose from the morphine which lasted all day. I know i've seen people post on here saying that they did'nt even know that they had been operated on and i remember thinking how can that be? but now i know, i had to double check with Mr Ammori that he had done a bypass. Ive been lucky no real pain even the trapped wind has moved thanks to the tips i got on here. Had a bit of a cry on Saturday think it was delayed reaction to the whole process. Journey home was fine too just stopped every hour as instructed and stretched my legs. It's taking a bit of getting used to my head is struggling to keep up with my new body requirements but it's early days. Slight pain from a couple of my wounds but biggest pain is the headaches could you tell me if this is normal painkillers aren't really taking the pain away. A big thank you to all of you for your good wishes and the welcome home it really did help a lot xx
