"This was written Sat"

Hi All,

I'm Back!! It’s day 3 out of surgery and I’m feeling pretty Good!!!

My Dr. had to do a "Substantial" Hiatal Hernia repair. I was on the table for more than 3 hrs. then to the recovery room. Soooo, most of Wed. was a Big Blurrrr.

Thu. was very long and uncomfortable but, I still wanted to go home.

I walked my laps around the surgical ward, Stage 1 fluids, my stage 2 Protein Drink and left Hospital @ 5:30 pm. I arrived home 8:30pm.

Fri. I was up to watch the sunrise, and went back to bed. I did good drinking my fluids. I went slow & steady to meet the requirements. Much less gas pains than my 3/31/10 gallbladder surgery. No nausea, no choking and no throwing up. These were my biggest fears. I’m just hanging low for the rest of the weekend.

Thanks for all the support you’ve given me!!

Carol Glad to hear your surgery went fine, and that you are feeling good enough to get out.

I am some computer problems over the weekend due to a bad storm here and was not able to login. I thought about you and hoped everything went fine.

I hope that you will keep posting and let us know how things are going as you get smaller and smaller.

Karen

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
