 |  Well I had my surgery(s)
Hullo all I had my surgery on 3-1 and a second on 3-3 to fix a leak. I am glad that it was discovered while I was in the hospital and that my surgeon was the one to fix it...but...MAN am I sore that bloody JP (T?) bulb drain hurts it feels like I have two bruisers beating on my sides with 40# sledge hammers. I still feel drained, though I am feeling somewhat better. I know that all the tubes will come out, and that everything is going to be okay. It was frustrating seeing all the other bariatric patients up and cruising down the hall whilst I was barely able to make it to the bathroom. It has started out strange I hope this trip gets smoother.

Welcome to the bench. It is a good thing they caught the leak when they did and not after you got home, that could have been scary.
Its a journey, listen to your body and your doctor and the ride will get easier.
