Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Kerry, You have shown us all again just how brave and strong you are. I cannot even imagine what all those tubes and drains were like. I just had one chest tube after the OLB and I was truly in agony. 4 tubes and other drains? That sounds unsurmountable to me. Yet you write about them and the removal as if it was just a simple thing. Now I know that the procedures are not simple. Keep fighting kid...we are all here to help absorb whatever pain is too much!!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009 TO YOU AND KEVIN AND THE FAMILY.

I had a bilateral transplant so I had 2 incisions in my back, 4 garden hose (no joke) drains in the front and 2 morphine drip lines, too. When I last emailed I had the morphine lines and 2 of the drainage tubes removed. It was a huge relief because hurting in the front and back made me want to take short tensed up shallow breaths. On Christmas, I got the other 2 drains pulled. I was able to clean up a little more, get out of a hospital gown and actually move out of bed myself. I was able to take deeper breaths and had a temporary handle on the pain. I took a step forward, then a couple steps back because I would end up going from pain relief to a white knuckle ride before more relief. All thru this, the docs were saying things were progressing well and actually talked about me getting released much earlier than expected. After a very painful Friday night I begged for something different. I was at near max dose of what I was on, of course they can't just sedate you or you wouldn't be able to work the new lungs and I have some medication allergies that limit my options. I'm actually in a greater amount of pain now, but I feel like I can work thru a continuous level easier than the rollercoaster ride (except at night, it's hard to distract yourself from the pain in the overnight). Anyway, I am doing the exercises, walking the halls, doing breathing exercises, eating, learning about all my medications, about this steroid induced diabetes (I'm just going to plan on it being temporary, once the steroids amounts are weaned down over the next year). I did my pulmonary rehab this morning and passed it (and that is really impressive because I've been struggling w/ a little wheezing the past day). It was cool to be able to walk a farther distance today w/ my new lungs than I had done in the last year on up to 8 liters of oxygen. One of the most exciting things was finally viewing the xrays of the before and after. My old lungs were almost completely opaque. With the new lungs, you instead see space, air and the funny thing... ribs! Depending on how the pain relief goes overnight and some of the medications being completed and/or changed over today I might actually get released tomorrow. It's up to the surgeon and the pulmonologist and I think about a half dozen coordinators. Thanks to all for the encouragement, your joy and encouragement has come thru loud and clear. and I discussed again today how amazing it is to feel so many well wishes and prayers for us. I did talk to Judy as you know the other day and I told her I would update again and needed to share w/ everyone that I had a wonderful visit w/ Lucian and Gretchen on Friday. They brought me a wonderful hospital care package and I was able to share with them some of the wonderful things that I thought I learned from Joyce and showed them some very concrete examples of how she was still helping me thru this.
