Post op Day 4

Thought I would send an update. Surgery went well well on Monday. Got out of the hospital around 4 on Tuesday after NO sleep. I swear don't ever check into a hospital for exhaustion as you get NO rest. Every hour someone waking you up to check you, make you pee or stick you for blood.

Got home Tuesday at 4 and went back to ER at 10:30 PM after fever spiked to 101.5 and pain!!!!! Was at ER from 11-3:30 in the morning getting IV antibiotics and again no sleep.

Weds pretty much slept all day except when trying to drink 64 ounces of fluids.

Today after sleeping 11 hours last night I feel much better.

Would I do this again? At this point no way! But I did get on the scale today and have lost 14 lbs. Probably that big old stomach they cut out and removed from me! I asked how much it weighed. The doctor laughed and said he didn't weigh it but it may be in the pathology report. Yea along with comments like Holy cow look at this gi-normous thing!

Seriously I think the end results are going to be good and I would do it again. Just hard getting back to human.
