Surgery Day 12/27/2013

Dec 29, 2013

Hello All, I am horrible at posting and I promise to try and get better. Reading other peoples post on here helped me through my journey so I want to help others like myself.

So I made it through!!! A week before surgery I was filled with so much anxiety, my biggest fear was that I was not going to wake up or something was going to go wrong. But I had a wonderful Doctor and team and It went as smooth as one can hope. When I woke up the first thing I said was ouch and where is my mama... lol. The pain I would have to admit felt like a truck ran me over from the inside out and I swear I moaned and groaned and hummed until the pain meds kicked in. From there it was all about pain management. My Hospital stay was 2 days so in on a Friday and out on Sunday. I was up and walking the same night of surgery, showering on the second day. I am taking my sips as often as I can but I feel no hunger or anything so I am just having to make it a routine. I have 6 incisions and it can get pretty uncomfortable so I try to make sure to take my meds every 4 hours because if I don't it would hurt so bad that I could not walk or be productive at all.

Anyways my Post Op appointment is scheduled for January 2nd so I will keep you all posted.
