Rushed to hospital 5 days post op

I was rushed to the hospital last night via ambulance after experiencing severe pain and nausea, in the middle of a snowstorm.

My blood pressure was 60/25 which I'm told is extremely dangerous. Pumped me with fluids and BP came up to 107/55.

Cat scan revealed bleeding and they are still not sure what's going on. May have more surgery. Pain is still pretty bad.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. I'm resting comfortably in my room and feeling good. Surgeon said my staple line was holding up great so I'm relieved about that.

Soooo glad you are ok. Dd they give you any info on what they think may have caused it? If you don't mind sharing that is. Really glad you are well. Wish you an uneventful recovery.
