Guest guest Posted November 23, 2001 Report Share Posted November 23, 2001 theresa's husband here .. i have been staying at the hospital with her since monday .. they are hoping to release her on sunday ... she had a few problems .. nothing major .. her intestine tended to shred when the doc was reattaching it he says nothing to do with the IBS.. so he had to double stitch..she had a leak test .no leaks .. but they did find a small pocket of blood or infection and have started her on iv antibiotics though her blood work is coming back fine with no sign of infection and she is not spiking a fever .. the doc is just being cautious ... she has been getting up about five times a day and walking for fifteen to twenty min. . she says sometimes she feels like she didnt even have surgery and other times hurts like hell.. ALL YOUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED as she has finally started releasing gas and hopefully that will relive some of the discomfort .. they took her off iv morphine pump today and she is going to be on oral pain meds.. all in all she is fairing pretty damn good ..
