Pre Op

Yeasterday was my Pre Op appt at the hospital as well as my final apt with the surgeon. Lets start with the Pre-Op apt at the hospita. I walked in and signed in and met with someone from Admitting- filled out a form or two- she asked some questions and then shipped me over to another dept but not sure what it was for as they also asked questions and gave me the run down on the surgery and the do's and don't of that day and the day before. this part was super informative, they gave me a body wash that is required to be used the night before surgery as well as morning of surgery (to clean off any bacteria) and also took a swab of my nostrals for some virus. after that they sent me to respitory dept where they gave me a little apperatus that i needed for after the surgery to help avoid obtaining namonia (however you spell that) lol. The whol Pre Op took about an hour and a half. From there I went over to the surgeons office and met with him. the apt with him was seriously like 2 minutes long- he just asked if I was ready and made sure to recap on the proceedure and the process for the day of and day before.

Now my feelings towards this all...... It all became so Surreal when I was in the hospital! SURGERY!!! OMG I have only had two surgeries in my lifetime, and darnit I think I am nervious.. I feel like the 1st two weeks will be like a crack adict with the withdraws. because I already know that my food habits are addictions and the thought of not being able to eat a cheesburger and fries whenever I want to is really hitting me hard. I mean am I that dependent on fast food, junk food or unhealthy food that much??? I feel like I may actually be sad after the surgery and actually miss the comfort of that food. I really hope though that it passes, i mean if a crack adict can get through their withdraws i should be able to too??? Right??? Well the count down will begin soon...... Pray it goes smoother then what is going through my mind right now!!!!

Surgery Time

I received my email from the nurse with Dr. Suh's office yeasterday with the time of my surgery- I was so shocked to find out that my surgery isnt until 3:30 PM !!!!! This is just a huge bummer because now I have to sit all day without eating and pace the floor waiting for the surgery. I have to be at the hospital at 1:35Pm.
I have my registration apt with the hospital on Tues 4/17/12 @ 1:45pm, and my final apt with the surgeon at 4:40Pm- not sure why the long time frame inbetween apts but lets hope I am not sitting around forever!

on a side note I am seriously overwhelmed with trying my hardest not to gain any more weight! but mentally i just cannot stop eating! I am going crazy with trying to figure out why I am so darn hungry- I cant figure out if I am hungry only in my head or if my stomach is the size of a two liter and it just isnt getting filled up with my smaller portions!!! Man I hope they will still let me have the surgery if I gain 3 pounds. I am a stress case right now!
