Thursday Night Smack Down In Durham!

[Guest guest]

Hey Guys! Beth from Orlando a Post OP!!! Yeeehaa...I had my MGB on

Thursday at Durham regional. I was scheduled for but showed up

to clinic weighing 355 with sleep apnea. Doc felt safer doing it at

the hospital. Which I had no problem with until about 9 hours after

surgery. When from a room next to mine I hear the staff hooping and

hollering, laughing and carrying on. Well, this did not bother me

except that, I had read all the post ops saying how the staff will

ask you to get up as soon as possible, go the bathroom and walk.

Well, no one had asked me to do either, so about 10pm (MGB 1pm)I

buzzed the desk to let them know I needed unhooked from the various

plugs to go potty and walk around. Immediately a voice over the

paging system: " Room 03 needs assistance. Assistance to O3 " . When all

the sudden I hear an annoyed voice exclaim: " Don't 03 know we are

watching WRESTLING?! " She came in 15 minutes later. During a

commercial.

So my sage advice to all pre ops...when choosing a date....beware of

Thursday Night Smack Down at Durham Regional!

I had one other problem with my TEDS...they were way to tight.

I am going to close for now but am looking forward to posting later

about all the incredible people I have met here in Durham! I have

made lifelong friends here and it makes this sooooo much easier to

deal with. Reach out to your littermates who are not on this list.

They have no clue what they are missing!

Love and Laughs, Sips and Giggles

Oh Beth, I'm so glad to hear from you. I'm glad you are doing great.

Were you alone at the hospital? My husband would have busted up that

wrestling party! I'm sorry that happened to you. You should report it

to Dr. R. If he is like the doctor I work for, he would really take

it personally that one of his patients were neglected while under his

care at the hospital.

Hurry up and post again before I get on the road> I leave in the

morning.

I am sure Sr. R will read your post and I hope he mentions this to the

hospital. It is inexcusable.

Beth,

I am so sorry to hear about your stay at Durham regional. But I am

glad to see you post. I wasn't sure what your email address was and

wanted to keep in touch with you and your weight loss.

When I read your post, i.e. sleep apnea and being originally

scheduled for , I knew you were " The Party Girl " Beth!!!!

Good luck from here on out, and I'll be watching for you.
