Thumbs up Home from hospital

Hi All!!
I made it!! Had my laproscopic poximal bypass surgery and removal of gall bladder at same time. Had surgery Mar.8th around 12pm and came home on Mar. 9th around 1pm.
So far have had no problems. Have been getting fliuds in, even tho. they seem to stick in throat due to sweeling from ventilator. My legs and feet are very swollen from being in reversed trundelenberg bed. (Feet down)
Ran a low grade temp. last night, but that's been fine today. Was able to take shower by myself with hubby close by to help if I needed it. Have been walking and doing small things.
I'm surprised I feel so well. I have to keep looking at the poke holes to make sure I had it done and not a dream.
So now get this weight off and begin my new life!!
I had my three special Angels with me and they saw me thru this. Along with my hubby, close friends and the info. I've gleened from forum.
All of you were and are a inspiration to me, and I thank you!!
Take care,
Kathy

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Thank you all for the sweet encouraging replies.
I'm a little more tender at some of the poke sites, but ne redness, swelling or discharge.
Now I'm just kinda slow motion, but get up and walk, and climbed stairs. Sipping every 15 min. as per orders. I found little red espresso cups and saucers, so I take sips from them with my pinky held out. Feel like a princess.ROFL
Seems like more edema off today, will weigh after shower.
Take care,
Kathy

Kathy hehehehe I loved the little pinky finger up you cracked me up. You have such a sweet funny soul hehehe

First of all I'd love to congratulate you on the smooth and easy surgery, and would love to salute you on your hi spirits and determination of fast recovery.
All what I can tell you is that when I was at your stage I couldn't get up from my bed. I've got to tell I did mine open and Gosh I felt so weak!

Keep your good work going, and stick around here, you're a valuable RR member.

Love,
Hanadi
