i am alive. Surgery done. They told my hubby it went well. I am sore and have horrible gas pains but that is to be expected. I will write more when I feel better. I could not have done this without all of the support on here. 

referral: early June 2016; surgery Feb 21, 2017

I am sipping, walking and resting but no tooting. Stubborn gas won't come out.

Yep that gas is stubborn...it took a couple days for mine...but I could feel it working it's way down.

Keep it up...you will feel better once you are home tomorrow!!
