Well things got complicated Friday night. Started having bright red blood in my stools (sorry if TMI) which surgeon said was fresh bleeding. Went to ER and waited almost 4 hours to be seen. Admitted Saturday morning with acute hemorrhage but no transfusion was needed. Bleeding stopped on its own and they sent me home Sunday afternoon. Glad to be home! -
Relationships: I am not telling my extended family members about my surgery....

I'm 4 days post-op and told only my hubby, my sister and mother-in-law (who I am very close to). Just didn't want to hear any negativity or unsolicited advice. Now that I'm postoperative and doing well, I don't give a crap who knows! -
how long did your bypass surgery take?

1 hour (they have two surgeons working on you at the same time) -

Got out of hospital yesterday and everything went pretty well. Had some wicked nausea that couldn't be controlled. 5 different meds tried then the 6th one worked. -
Welcome! The waiting can really drive you nuts. I used the time to prepare and freeze a bunch of meals for my family to eat the first couple weeks. Tomorrow is my big day! Hope to see you on here again.
