Default Surgery Update

Just thought I would say hi. has successful surgery yesterday. Took alittle long thean normal so I felt like shit from the anastesia after and was in and out of sleep for about 3 hours until I left the hospital.

One odd thing. As I got my iv in pre-surgery, I got up to go to the bathroom and blacked out pretty fast. I dont really remember what happened but the nurses heard a loud slam, and it was me. They also got a peak at the package too I guess...lucky for them.

I am pretty sore today, I have valum for the pain. I have taken 1- twice. 1 last night one this morning. I would rather not take too much.

Sleeping is hard since I cant go on my side.

If you guys are interested about the surgery, or are thinking about getting it yourself, feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions.

Also it looks like a minimum of 14 days before I life or do anything that wil get my BP up. Hopefully I can go for morning walks in a few days...

Also they put a tube down my throut, makes it hard to take deep breths still.

Thanks for all your suport. It is why I love this forum so much.

Take care,
Kevin

Good to hear Kevin. You'll be up and running (erm.. lifting) before you know it. Don't rush it though, take it easy and make sure you're recovering well.

Now wait a minute...I know you're not saying a gal in her 40/50's can't be hot. The older my daughter gets...the less I see these young girls as attractive in a hott way. They just look...young to me. OMG I'm getting old.

Best wishes man. and..Be patient Kev. Helaing takes time.

Glad to hear you're okay, Kevin. You'll be back at it in no time. Just take it easy, and don't try to do too much, too soon.

Man! 30 minutes is up and he's gone. Didn't even finish the sentence!

Feel better soon, okay.

Take care of yourself. Let us do the lifting for a couple of weeks. We need it!

Don't you mean "wear"?

Glad you're recovering okay. I wasn't aware you were even having surgery. What did you have done? You finally get those pec implants you've been eyeing?
