Okay, so my friend took me to my surgery on friday morning. i hate houston, i get lost everytime i go there. especially in the med center. anyway dr. spivak was late. he said that they told me the wrong time. i was scheduled for 9:30 and actually made it about 10:15 or so. anyway i felt like i was at a cattle call. there were probably 15 other patients lined up for surgery. there are obviously several other doctors that do their procedures at this facility. anyway they put some awesome stuff in my iv. i asked for rock and roll, i heard the music then next thing i know i am waking up at it is around 11:00am. The gas pains were absolutely miserable. i was mad at my friend because she was making me walk. i couldn't get rid of the gas pains and couldn't sleep at all on friday. i finally managed to pass out on saturday and slept off and on all sat and sunday. i made it to work on monday for a few hours. then went home cause the pain hurt. anyway i was able to eat dinner lastnight. had a small filet of flounder, a few bits of mushroom rice and a sugar free jello. today at lunch i had 4 bits of enchiladas and a couple of bites of beans with cheese and tomatoes. i was full. that was at 11:00am. it is now 2:30pm and i am getting hungry again so i will go drink a protein drink. i still have some gas but not nearly as bad as a few days ago. i can eat too and that worries me but i will continue as instructed and get a fill when it is time.....
