Going Under the Knife on Monday...

[Barn Babe]

...and I'm kind of freaking out. :willy: It's going to be outpatient back surgery, no big deal, but the thought of going under terrifies me. In the past, I have been hard to "wake up." Prayers and happy thoughts would be appreciated.

You will do fine!:seasix: I will put in a good word for you!

[DropTheTop]

Prayers sent!

I'm the opposite. The idea of being awake for anything terrifies me, so put me under! I don't even like thinking about what they might have to do, or what might go wrong. I would have a more difficult time getting a procedure done, if they didn't put me under!

All the best, hoping for positive outcome.:seasix:

ask them to use Propofol... aka "the milk". There is no jet-lag feeling when you come out of it. Wonderfull stuff.

Isn't "the milk" what killed Michael Jackson? :skep:

[99 pewtercoupe]

Good Luck. We all wish you well and hope everything turns out for the best.


Plus one for the request to post while still on the meds :lol::lol::lol:

[tjfontaine]

How long has it been since you have been under? The current anesthetics are REALLY good now and you pull out of them much faster. I had surgery in July and it was CAKE easy out easy back it's all good. Good luck BB.

[JRD77VET]

I'll say prayers for you, your family plus the entire surgical team. :yesnod:

You'll be fine

[mrvette]

OH kid, prayers for you, best of luck......the world needs titzy blonds....:dance:

[NEED-A-VETTE]

Prayers for a successful surgery and speed recovery. :grouphug:

[Loco Vette]

You got this!

[Bill]

IB4SeaSix offers to wake you up for half price by smashing a paper bag full of air right next to your ear.

Seriously, though, it's going to be fine. You'll do fine.



Also seriously, do NOT let Sea Six wake you up. He's out of network and it will end up costing you more.

[Grey Ghost]

Prayers the surgery will help you. Concentrate on your recovery and follow all the Dr.'s instructions and you will do great!

[Zed16]

:angel: You’ll do great! In our prayers.

[Cybercowboy]

Piece of cake young lady, you'll be fine! I expect you to keep us all updated.

[Marc]

I'ii keep you and your Dr's. in my prayers Michele. Try to relax :angel:

[Olustee bus]

Prayers for you and I look forward to hearing the good news of the success and quick recovery.

[Black94lt1]

Prayers and keep us posted. As others have said, please post will on the pain meds :D. In all seriousness, you got this, relax and go into it we’ll rested.

[Oh-yaa]

Best wishes for the surgery a speedy recovery. :)

[markids77]

Just remember not to take a swing at the recovery room tech when you come to and you will be fine. No worries!

[snide]

Best wishes for a positive outcome! :cheers:

[Barn Babe]

recovery posting coming up?!

[Stevedore]

Good news. :hurray: Embrace the pain meds, they're your friend. I used Percocet for a while after some lung surgery ~25 yrs ago. I'd wake up pretty much unable to move, take the Percocets, & 20 minutes later, like clockwork, life was good.

Enjoy the trip. :rasta:

Am glad you made it through A-OK :seasix: I understand the anxiety of going under all too well. :yesnod:

Years ago they had to give me something for my heart to get going/pump as it wasn't doing it so well on its own when coming out of it. :ack:

My latest surgery (Dec 2017) was also outpatient but apparently I full-coded and had to be resuscitated...ended up having an extended stay in the ICU after that experience. Freaked out a bunch of people...

Needless to say, I hope I don't need any more surgeries as I'm not so sure I'll wake up :willy: think I have bad reactions to the anesthesia and/or nerve block :shrug:

[Barn Babe]

Sorry, just Vicodin and flexeril. :D

I remember you going through a medical crisis, how scary! And it was out-patient? I’m so glad I didn’t read this before my surgery!

I should have already had a colonoscopy, which I have put off, my knees are shot, and my Dr. already wanted to send me for back surgery. Except for the colonoscopy, I will have to be in way worse shape than I am now to go under the knife. I know things are relatively safe these days, but then again, weird stuff happens like it did to you. Yeah, a full code is not a good thing. I'm certainly glad you recovered well.:seasix:

[LilRedCorvette]

I would not have posted that beforehand :willy:

If it's any consolation at all, I woke up just fine after my colonoscopy :seasix: think those drugs were less invasive...

Don't put that off, colon cancer is a shitty way to go (no pun intended)...my Dad is about 20-25 yrs overdue for one and going through it now...

[JRD77VET]

So Michelle, how's your back feeling?

Hopefully well :grouphug:
