Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

I always do. At the hospital getting checked out. Its just the one breast. EKG was ok but they wont be able to see if its a blockage till i have the MRI. This sucks for real

They won't be able to tell of you have a blockage in your heart unless they do a cardiac catheterization. They could do a stress test, but that will not give you a definitive answer. Have you had problems with your heart before?

Heart problems

Blood work chest X-ray were all good. Have to do stress test Friday morning. I still think its from playing Wii boxing last week imoved a muscle I haven't in a long time y'all know what I mean. And my breast have extremely shrunk. Great full for that but don't like the pain. It could have also been stress related. I graduate from school in 2 weeks and then have my boards to pass think that is freaking me out a bit. But I feel good just the stabbing every so often in my left boob

My muscles and bones hurt now!! And the only thing thaat the doc is doing to help is to send me to physical therapy

I too did physical therapy.. Didn't really help though

I was in the ER last night with stomach pain so bad I couldn't move. CT scan showed nothing. They said I'm constipated. Which I already new. Now dehydrated to add to the fun? Not a good few weeks :-(

Darn it. So sorry to hear of your troubles. Hopefully they can get you back on track soon. Hang in there!

I use miralax every night works like a charm!!!

This question is for Ozzie!!! I am going Thursday to have a hysterectomy I have read some about your complications! Did you have a radical hysterectomy? Did they do it robotic or open or laproscopy? Just trying to get a sense what I am looking at. I have to be back at school a few days afterwards finals are coming up!

I had a robotic lap surgery. I had to have everything taken, right down to the lymph nodes due to my precancerous state. The problems I'm having isn't from the hysterectomy itself, but improper placement of the catheter. The tried to replace it 3 times to no avail :'-( so right now I am able to go off antibiotics for a week and then I get the pain in my bladder and a UTI. It is ridiculous. I have a cystoscopy set up for next Friday. The will have a looksy into my bladder to see what damage was done. Hopefully nothing major. If its permanent, lawsuit will be coming around.

Also, if you can postpone til after finals, that would be better. You will need 2-3 weeks and that is w the robot assisted laparoscopic surgery. You'll have the gassiness again, ugh. Plus for me it was heck of a lot more painful than the RNY. Probably due to complications.

Just tell them to make sure they place catheter properly. Good luck. I will have you in my thoughts!!!

Thank you. I already warned my teachers the following week I will be there but I will be drugged up and will only stay an hour not the whole 3. My gallbladder surgery was worst then my rny too so I am scared of this one. I had my gallbladder surgery in December and just as two weeks ago I am able to lay in my left side without the pulling feeling inside
