Guest guest Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Hi Patty, Aw, that's a bummer! I hope you will be able to rebound a bit better in the next few weeks! I'm sorry you had to go through all that. Glad you are home and alive as you reported!! LOL Now just take good care of yourself, be gentle, don't overdo anything, and just report in when you can. Get better! Hugs, Patty F. > > Hey Ladies > > just wanted to report that I got thru the gallbladder surgery friday but it has totally KICKED MY BUTT!! i think having the surgery so close to my explant surgery just did a number on me. I mean it flattened my butt out!! > > Still very very sore. Which I think having 4 one inch incisions right down the middle of my tummy agrivates the pain Im feeling. plus 1 one inch incision on my right side. Still sore from explant too. Dont know if it was the surgery itself or the anestheia but I am totally wiped out and not bouncing back as quickly as I thought I would. Still taking things slow when moviing around. Still taking pain meds especially at bedtime, cause its so uncomfortable trying to turn over and getting up and down to go to the bathroom. And everything I eat and drink seems to fly right thru me so thats not helping matters, trying to make a mad dash to the bathroom, humped over like Im looking for pennies on the floor with 3 pugs running under my feet to make sure mama is ok!!!!!! > > Anyway, just wanted to let you all know that Im home and Im alive, although I sure dont feel like much, im sure things will get better, just been a tough go and I didnt prepare myself mentally as everyone kept telling me " oh gallbladder surgery is a breeze " . So I figured it would be! HAH NOT!!! Maybe it would have been if I hadnt went thru explant just 3 wks prior along with the muscle repair, not to mention that ive been extremely sick from implants and gallbladder for 7 months prior to these 2 surgeries. > > Thank you all for listening to me whine!!!! ill just be so glad when I start to feel better. Also will post when I find out something on my pathology report. > > hugs to you all > PattyDC > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Hi, Patty It's great that you went through two main obstacles of your life. You are on your way to healing. Don't expect too much at once and be patient with your body. In time, your body will recover and you will be feeling so much better!
