I just found out two things about a lap. Well, three but I’d already read one of them somewhere else: That I will be under general anethesia for the proceedure (yay – I really don’t want to be aware of anything… period). That you have to have a breathing tube put in during the proceedure (AGGGH! At least they do it while you’re asleep. Whew.). And that after the proceedure you are not to lift more than 20lbs for two weeks. That should make my life interesting. (I do heavy lifting every day at work.)<\/p>\n
Oh, plus you need to get an IV for the lap. I just saw an IV on TV for a birth, for all of 2 seconds. Freaked me the fuck out.<\/i> That may be the worst part for me. (I can handle injections and drawing blood okay – but I have to look away and distract myself while the needle is in. It just really freaks me out to see a needle in my skin. And an IV goes in and stays in. And that. Is not. Cool.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
