Hey Guys...
Well, let's see... I'm feeling great, trying to remember NOT to do too much....My appt was w/ the NP in my surgeon's office.. Really nice lady...She removed my staples, checked my vitals..
My BP was pretty good (Thank You Jesus!!) - 133/82 .. It was running pretty high...
Respiratory stuff is good.. She thinks the mucus thing is a combo of reflux and my compromised Resp system (had pneumonia in the spring and several bouts of bronchitis since then).... I now take Prevacid 2x a day, instead of one.
Everything else was cool.. (besides an oozing, weeping incision near my belly button!!.. no infection, just a lot of Fluid coming out.. ) she wants me to keep up w/ the meds and keep moving..
OH... I now weigh.... 341!! That's 19 pounds less than my surgery day!!!! YEAH!!!!
