The next day I was up at 4 am allthough my pickup wasnt till 7am I couldnt sleep. Then I arrived for surgery, I saw Dr. Aceves and he went over everything for awhile, they put my IV in, gave me blood thinner and then took me to he surgery room, I knoced out and dont remember anything, I woke up not to really much pain, to avoid complictions..I literally slept remainder of the day, they notified my husband I was well, he found out I was in Mexico, and wasnt to pleased so he allready called Nina and told her he knew, what can I say I didnt think he would understand how good Dr. Aceves was just cause hes in Mexico and the horror stories you hear about Mexico..I can tell you the Dr and nurses are attentive daily.
So Wed which is my second day had to be the worst pain I had OUCH...still worth it..I felt cold and hot got a fever they gave me meds which lowerd my fever...and they gave me a medication to help me sleep through the night. I also got nautious, I allways do so this isnt new to me..Dr Aceves and Campos visit daily, they also ask if I have any questions, so nice..They also take me for a xray and show me no leakage, so scared to get up, I was fine.
So I got a pain killer I asked nurse, Dr Campos came in to take out drain on stomach it hurt me but im a big baby when it comes to foreign objects touching entering or exiting me..
Thursday, Im a alot better I got to eat broth in the morning tastes so good went to the restroom finally, hard for me to maneauver out of bed. I walk around to avoid pain from coming It does help I learned this on the board. I read a little and watched movies.
Got ready and packed.I also went to pharmacy to buy medication Nexium is like 30 dollars while pain killers is like less than 15 I think.I also got exit paperwork from Doctors and xray, they said I can go back in 90 days if I want to then off to sleep...
Friday saw the Dr Campos.I took a shower and got out and to my surprise I had breakfast a nice soup and apple juice and gatorade, this is usually the meals, love the soup..I was greeted by the Driver Ernesto whom took my bags and off we went to the San Diego airport, I got to see a tour of the Mountains learned alot and loved it, I also arrived 10ish in San Diego.
Currently its a week later, I have had back pain from anestesia which is normal I had to read on board why..and figured it out..I cant lay on my left side just yet all the way, I have been resting, I walked alot today though, and am excited about my future so excited, I did light weights for my arms and have tried to drink protein, every day is a learning experience, I am not 100 percent yet but sure feel good..I had a bit of pain the past few days but today im alot better..I went and bought liquid tylenol, not sure if recommended but some times I need it..I had no phone reception in Mexico, gave me time to rest honestly I think it was better without phone...So im looking forward to my future.
