Guest guest Posted September 3, 2001 Report Share Posted September 3, 2001 Hi Kathy, I also drove with my DH from Dallas-16 hours to Kentucky and 16 hours back. I never slept once on the way home. I felt wide awake and was very comfortable with the trip. I guess I got so much sleep the day after my surgery that I wasn't sleepy any more. I checked in to the hospital at 6:00 am and I was the first surgery of the day. The enema was tolerable but didn't care for it. My surgery was almost 3 hours long because Dr. Levin had to find a place to attach my tube on one side. I came out of surgery and was in recovery for a while and then went back to my room and slept almost all the rest of the day. I did get up and walk in the evening. It hurt but nothing that I couldn't tolerate. I did not take any pain pills at all while in the hospital. I have a high tolerance for pain. If you feel like the anesthesia may make you nauseous you can tell the anesthesiaoligist before the surgery and he will put something in your IV so that when you wake up from surgery you won't be sick to your stomach at all. I have a big problem with that so I asked him for it and he gave it to me and when I woke up I was fine. Hope this relieves any anxiety you may have.
