my surgery will be oct 15 what should i expect as far as getting up and walking
Congrats on your upcoming surgery date. Are you talking about walking in the hospital? Doctors stress the importance of walking as soon as possible because of the air they insert into your belly during surgery. It causes a ton of gas that can be painful & you need to move to get it to start to dissipate. Once I was out of the recovery area, my pain was really well controlled with medication so it wasn't difficult at all. I actually enjoyed getting up and checking out the floor to break up the boredom of being in a hospital room.my surgery will be oct 15 what should i expect as far as getting up and walking
That certainly does seem to be the big day!Hey welcome to the Oct 15th group! Myself and Louisiana are also that date. Brenda is a great wealth of knowledge!
