Well, I had my gallbladder out yesterday. I was very nervous until they gave me 10mg of Valium… I felt fine after that. They wheeled me into the pre-op waiting room, where I think I met everyone who would be working on me… Honestly, I remember meeting a beautiful Asian woman who I think was my anaesthesiologist and a surgical resident. From there they wheeled my into the operating room where they asked me to hop over to the operating table, and help get me centered on it. Within seconds, I lay back and they gave me “oxygen”. I took about 2 breaths then woke up in the recovery room. Once I could speak again, they moved me up to a room on the 6th floor. My nurse Angela and nursing assistant Robin were absolutely wonderful.
I’m on oxycodone for pain management., so forgive my ramblings…
