Bionic Day and the Journey Begins

Postby Dionnfr » Sun Jul 09, 2017 8:21 am

Well my surgery day is almost here. I have to be at the hospital tomorrow at 5:30 am. Starting to get a little nervous, but I know all will be well.

Thanks for all your advice in getting me thru this.

I had my surgery 2 weeks ago tomorrow. Good luck just remember not everyone but talking with a lot about 2 or 3 days after you may have the thought of "What the Hell did I do" Keep coming here for support these guys are the best. Lay on your ass and ice ice ice. In that first week you will wake up and think you feel good enough to move around more don't do it.

My bionic day has arrived. At the hospital waiting to be called in by the nurse. I'll post later once I wake up.

Surgery all done and in the room. Little

I was at 25--30% and that wasn't pleasant for the first few weeks.

Yeah, I have probably been inflated that much for over 4 weeks now. It is unpleasant for sure. It wants to stick out some, but I have to keep it pressed close to my body with compression shorts per doctors orders. When I first started doing this, I thought that I might blow it out from undue pressure on the cylinders. :shock:

Just enjoy the overnight stay at hospital. I had fun with the nurses. Welcome to the bionic brotherhood. :D
