Checking in for a moment. You'll be hearing from me tomorrow morning. LOL GEt this my surgey isnt until 3pm tomorrow afternon.  I dont need to be there untiil 100 pm. What a relief but they said I can't eat after midnight!!!!    isnt that usually for morning surgeries???   

[Phyl]

{{LB}}  Nope. The anesthesia can make you nauseated. And if you eat even a light meal you could barf it all up in the airway device in you esophagus and suffocate or the like in the OR..  Sorry ...good idea to 'pig- out' the night before---but no alcoholic beverages.

LB, Okay to the 3pm and be there at 1pm. Nope to eating after mid-night. Nothing! Nice try though. Lol I'm just kidding you know that.   
Phyl explained it very good.

Hi Phyl I like the "good idea to pig out" the night before!

Hi Tig, Thanks for the hugs. Love hugs. I hope all's good with you and Camper.

I went grocery shopping this afternoon. Would you believe there were live Christmas trees and wreaths outside for sale already?? We haven't had Thanksgiving yet! Geez Louise.

Hi Puff, Agreed to LB having lots of good wishes and prayers for her from friends here.  That's nice.
I heard from her earlier this evening. She had a veggie burger and baked potato with broccoli and cheese for dinner.
I recall your post explaining your knee surgery so you know first hand about the process and procedure.

LB, You've got this. You're going to do great.

Good Morning,

Very good you slept well. Wow you showered already. Your sweatpants sound cozy. lol Just so that aren't too long. Be careful. Yep the worrier. Good that you packed your own cpap machine. Healthier and safer that way I'd think. Hmmm the hospital probably does have the distilled water.

An LB update.

7:50pm She asked me to let Cheers know she's in recovery. Her procedure began about 4:30pm she said not 3pm.

We've texted a few times. She sounds good.

Modified: 8:40pm  LB's in her room now. Sounds like things are moving along for her.

[paulie]

Phyl, You're welcome. I'll let LB know you said you're hoping she gets a good night's rest.

SEDs to you too.

Checking in!!! Holy  cow!!! The pain was no joke!!! They asked my level from 1-10. I told them 15. They gave me a nerve block that only worked for a few hours. The nurses suck herewell the night nurse did. I had to ask 4x times for pain meds. I remember puff telling me to keep on top of the pain. I guess the nurse did agree. So i had 2 doses if morphine and 1 dose of percoset to kick in and i actually had a deep goid sleep. Fom 3:00 -5:30 am. Before they woke me for vitals. .pai. us a little better today. It actually hurts up in the thigh. I am waiting fir PT. There is a good chance I may stay wnd night  being durhery was so late. At this point I won't mind. But I miss home and actually copper. Lol
