I can't believe that I got given my date 12 weeks ago and I thought it would be ages to go and now I am nearly there.I feel ok at the moment but in 11hrs I bet the nerves will be terrible.Everything is organised,I have even been out to buy the Movicol.I was going to save my Easter eggs until I got home but I have given in and eaten half of one before I down 2 sachets of my preload before 9pm.It will be an early night as I have to be at the hospital by 7.15am.The lovely warm and sunny day today has brightened my spirits and I had a friend phone me from Spain today wishing me good luck.I appreciate everyone's tips and good wishes on this forum.I will sign back in as soon as I can to let you know how it went.Keep your fingers crossed for me.
You sound very well prepared. Glad you had an Easter Egg treat before you went, nothing like spoiling yourself. Very glad you have had a lovely day. Try and get a goodnight's sleep. Good luck for tomorrow. Let me know how you get on. Will be thinking of you. Take care.
I was very carm on the day untill I was asked to date the consent form my hand let me down by shaking I found it hard to write even said to the consultant I was carm untill you gave me the pen
I feel very prepared.All the housework is up to date,even things like curtains are washed and back up.I have changed my bed and normally I have a duvet and top sheet but now it is just the duvet to make it easier getting in and out.I have moved certain things around to make it easier to reach when I get home.The cupboards are full of food and the freezer.My garden chair is cleaned up ready to have in doors as I think the settee will be too low. Can I just ask you about my pre op shower in the morning.My book only states that you cannot wear make up but can I use shower gel and deodorant?
just half way through my preload.Not bad at all.I thought it would taste horrible.It is really quite plain tasting but 1.5 pints is a lot together down.
I am now signing off for my early night.Please leave me some of your tips for when i come back to the forum.Thanks again to you and everyone else for your kind wishes.I will be back as soon as I can(hope it won't be too long)
Well it is 11am on the day of your op and I'm thinking of you. Hope all went well. I rang the hospital and they said it does not make any difference that I'm bleeding. Iv started my protein drinks and they taste rather nice. Look forward to speaking when we both get home and chatting about our recovery.
I have been here since 7.15.Started with 5 in our bay now down to 2.I have been told that i should be going to theatre about 1pm.Not sure if the hernia can be done today.There could be hope of keyhole.He will examine me when i am asleep.Still feeling ok.Had a lovely chat opposite who is also having a hysterectomy.
