(more detailed about my pre op)
So I got some interesting answers to some questions I had today and Im feeling a little better.
PS says...
He recommends ice packs
I can take a shower to wash my hair two days after as long as I stand with my back to the water at all times (doesnt want the water pressure hitting my chest)
He is planning on taking out about 2 pounds on each side
He put me on a pain med I've never heard of before (Mepergan)
I will have versed in my IV before surgery to keep me calm
I can go home as soon as I walk, pee and eat
I will probably have a catheter (sp?) during surgery
I can sleep on my side as soon as it doesnt hurt me to do so
When I had the hospital part of the pre-op everyone I talked to told me I couldnt not have picked a better PS for this work so that makes me feel good
Im so friggin nervous its not even funny....I would give anything to have a drink but I havent been able to have one for 3 weeks and it will be 3 more weeks before I can
oh...and I've lost 5 pounds since my yearly exam in september
