On Monday I had 3 consultations, one from the nurse, blood pressure, ecg etc and then one from Dr Cerna herself who marks out what shes taking off your tummy and one from the GP. They were all very indepth and just lovely ladies, who will help you with anything. After consultations had a lovely dinner and took a bus tour round prague, then an early night for me.
On the morning of the surgery I walked up to the clinic which is jut a short walk away and changed into hospital gown. You can read here or watch dvds.
I then got a sleeping pill and the next thing I knew I was back in the room, saggy tummy off and in no pain whatsoever - I couldn't believe it. Yes, it's a little bit uncomfy, but no real pain at all. It's quite awkward and uncomfy getting in and out of bed but not really much pain. I'm so shocked at how easy the whole thing was especially as I was so nervous before hand. It's a big thing going for surgery, and even bigger going for it abroad, but I can't wait to tell everyone about how good this place is and I feel really proud of myself for going through with it as I wanted to chicken out a few times. I've not seen much of my tum yet, just had a wee glimpse when dr cerna was changing bandages and it was sooo good to see all that ugly skin removed - the dr said she removed 2kgs - is that nearly 4lbs???
I'm one day post op, hopefully i'll stay pain free like this throughout my stay here. Just really wanted everyone to know how fantastic the care is here and I am so pleased I made the right decision xxx bikinis here I come
T.B.
