After anxiously waiting for the call, it came today! My surgery is set for Monday, April 10th! I feel like I have little butterflies in my stomach already and a million things to get done next week. I'm excited and nervous!

So I had surgery yesterday. Everything went great! Today, I'm working on drinking plenty of liquids so I can go home. The pain isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I sure am tired though!

It's been Great to read through this thread and see your updates.
Please continue to keep us posted.

I am officially 13 days post-op. I feel really good for the most part. However, the redundancy of the protein shakes is starting to make me vomit. I still have two days until my visit with the doctor and I cannot wait to start trying food again. I feel lucky that my experience has gone so well so far as I've seen some people have an awful time after surgery. I swear I'm going to do everything in my power to never have to have a protein shake again lol.

I'm on my way to my post-op appointment. I hope I get some good news. Good luck with your appointment, I hope you have progressed to the next stage.
