Well I ended up having emergency surgery today. I had thrown up severely all night so my surgeon had me to go the hospital this morning. He went in and found I had a large adhesion that was tightly wrapped around my colon. It was squeezing it and forcing liquids back up. I got to come home tonight and I feel so much better!!!

Glad you are feeling better. Here's to a fast recovery.

Glad that nightmare is over now.

Hope things are going OK. I finally got a surgery date - August 21.

I go in the 9th for my Pre-Op meeting. Not sure what that is all about.
