So... my RYN surgery is scheduled for February and I’ve been thinking about the post surgery process. I would love to hear your perspectives on the questions below:
I’ve always been a stomach sleeper. Event during most of my pregnancy (many moons ago) I slept on my stomach.
I’m curious to know if we’re you able to sleep on your stomach the day you came home from the hospital. If not, how long was it until you could.
I’ve seen people comment on having drainage tubes and catheters.
Did you have them in the hospital?
Did you have to go home with any of them?
Were they painful?
Several people have also mentioned having a pillow for your stomach afterwards. Is that helpful if your surgery is laparoscopic?
Is there anything not listed above that you wish you had known before you had your surgery?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
