Re: Off to my Surgery!!!

Thanks girls!! Im back!!!

Hey Everyone!! IM BACK!!

Thanks everyone for your well wishes!!

I wasnt allowed on the computer for two days, but i think I have been away long enough!!

The actual Lasik was super easy... a bit scary, but i did okay... they give you a teddy bear to hold onto and i think i might have scqueezed the crap out of it!! The worst part was when they were getting you ready for the actaul surgery... they best feeling i can equate it to is when you get your eye makeup done professionally and she does the bottom eyeliner... i always get squeemish for that part... well that is what it felt like... after the surgery they put goggles on you and send you on your way home, i just felt a bit dizzy.... I had to take an ambien so i would sleep for a few hours... i woke up and felt great! DH called me fly girl all night... because i guess i looked like a fly with those goggles taped on!!! no reading, compt, cooking, cleaning, or much else for two days... I had a check up appt this morning and he said everything is looking great... i was able to drive there with NO GLASSES OR CONTACTS!! I still cant see 100% though, but he said that should improve in a week or soo... im a bit disappointed and hope that it gets better because i heard most people see 20/20 immediately after the surgery...

That's great.....I'm glad it worked out. I'm sure it will get better, that happened w/ my friend too--it took about 5 days for her to see perfectly. Glad you are doing well!!!!!!!

GREAT! That's wonderful news!
I didn't see 20/20 for almost a month - give it time and heal well! Doesn't it feel great???
One of my favorite things is being able to see the shampoo and conditioner in the shower!!!!
