One week and TWO surgeries, Im finally on the other side!!!
Apr 11, 2010
WOW..What a week I have had..After a FIVE day hospital stay and TWO surgeries Im finally home!!! There are a lot of emotions I have gone through and if I had to name them all I'm sure I couldn't. Lets see... I went in Monday at 845 for surgery and actually got back in the OR at 1030.. It was a three and half hour surgery, and I have no clue how long I was in recovery... I went back to my room and its all alittle blury..lol... i had a pain med button and cath so I slept pretty much till the next morning. I got the OKAY to go on with the clears and cath out and pain button taken away. It all seem to being going good, no sickness, I was did have a upset belly, i would say my little tummy was upset it seemed like something else.. Well Wednesday morning I was told I could have my discharge papers that evening... But around noon I started getting a fever and was really feeling "off" so around 5ish my Doctor took the discharge orders back and started trying to figure out was going on!! At this time i was feeling like crap, couldnt move, and was so freakin hot!! I had ice packs all over my body... It was Horrible! So then at about 11 wednesday night I was woken up by my doctor telling me we where going back in surgery.. RIght noW! Wow.. I started crying, and freakin the hell out... I was on so many pain meds and so out of it I was so lost.. Anyway by 1130 I was back in the OR for another 2 hour surgery... Something about my small intestines being pinched and all of it was swollen and whatever else.... SO here I go again, back to my room, pain button and a cath!! At this time I couldnt have ANYTHING by mouth! I was dry my lips felt like they where fallling off! and I couldnt take but by Thursday evening I got the Okay.. Well Friday evening I finally got to go home!!! Im doing good other than the little pain I have on my left side on those cuts.. i have six and a drain tub. I also get two shots a day for blood clots. Im having no problem keeping things down and Im alway sipping on something because I feel like I cant get enough to drink.. My energy is a low and I hate not being able to get up and go!! I weighed myself this morning and was 5 pounds down.. Doesnt seem like enough for the hell I went through, but yeah Im sure its just fine..lol... I love my doctor he was really there for me, and took care of me because last time I was coming out of surgery I was horribly sick and I told him I was scared about that part and he told them to make sure I was not sick.. and I wasnt!!! What a to start this wonderful journey!!! If that didnt stop me, nothing can!!
