Pre op appointments finished
Today I had my pre op with the dr. He intends to do a TAH keeping both ovaries if they are looking ok.
I am at 14 to 16week pregnancy sized uterus, no wonder I am uncomfortable!
I have No bowel prep at all, just nothing by mouth after midnight, surgery is at 9am.
I did ask about the surgical garment from my tummy tuck, oh, yes, he is using the same incision site and I am to bring my garment in to the hospital and I am to wear it for the first 6+ weeks of recovery, he seemed a bit excited that I have one of those!
The hospital pre op was a blood draw, EKG and lots of medical questions then explanations about where to park, DH can be with me until surgery then the nurses will find him when I am awake. All in all it is good to have it all done, now I can get to work with the rest of it, 10 days and counting!

Hi Ktys,

Sending thoughts and prayers your way!
