Switched and almost human again!

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

As of 12/5, I've been switched. Still almost surreal, but if I'm

close to pain pill time, I snap back to reality (grin). For me, I

don't remember a lot of the first few days, but after that I had a

low grade fever followed by the discovery of a few minor

complications (after a CT scan). I had a partially collapsed lung,

an inflammation at the pancreas/duodenal area, and then the next day,

my belly button incision got a bit angry and had to be lanced (still

oozing). Other than that, my experience was pretty typical.

Now, I just am getting used to drinking, eating little bits, and

trying to rest and not overdue it. Now that I'm home (I was in for 8

days), I feel like I " should " be doing this or that...not like I can

bend over to do too many chores or anything, just a feeling that I

should be productive. Odd, never felt that before (haha).

Tired, but happy to be switched!

Cheers,

Amy
