Boo Boo Kitty's PS Journey

Hello all,

I thought I would start this thread today for my PS journey. I am going today (as long as I can get there in time) to the plastic surgeon.

Here is information on my surgeon...

I am going for a consult on a Tummy Tuck and breast reduction today.

Wish me luck all, I am nervous, scared and excited all at the same time!

:car: I will post all about what is going on here!

Hey ya all

I am off again to surgery! I hope to hell they get it right this time or I am gonna kill someone. I called yesterday to make sure they had the port. I was told she had it in hand.

I will be complaining and calling the paitient advoacte after today. This is beyond a normal screw up. It should have been taken care of a long long time ago.

Wish me luck everyone! Sad that I feel I do need it! lol.. :thumbup:

They called to other hospitals but couldn't find one.

Interesting. I wonder how far out they called since I take care of the OR materials at my hospital and know for a fact we have 2 on our shelf. I am also surprised they could not contact the rep to bring one in. You have every right to be downright pissed off.

I hope everything goes well for you today! Good luck chica!

Good luck hun. I hope everything goes well and you have a speedy recovery. Love you!

Sending you good thoughts and healing wishes BBK. I hope it goes well today and you recover quickly!

Surgery update...

Well I am back from surgery. Things didn't go smooth from the start. There was a bad accident on 127 and we had to get off. We got lost. :) BUT I did make it there a half hour late.

But they did take me anyways, thank goodness. Surgery itself went well. But right now I am feel absolutely horrible. I can not sleep, everytime I nod off I am awoken by choking on my mouth. I am gagging on my own stomach vile. I have tried everything to stop it, nothing is working. They took out 3.3 ccs and put back only 3 so I am sure that I am not too tight.

I am truly exuasted and in a huge amount of pain. I know if I could fall asleep I would get rid of the pain for a bit. I can say this is truly WORSE than the TT. At least then I could rest and get my mind off hte pain.

But on the cool note, I do have my old port here with me. lol... Only me eh? I am going to make a shadow box with my before picture with the port in it. To my bandster friends, you would be amazed at our friends that live in us. Mine has huge knicks all over on it. I know it from all the times they couldn't access it right.

Keep me in your thoughts, I need this pain to ease and this chocking to stop. I need some rest.

I am so sorry to hear that it was still a rough experience. I hope you feel better soon. You are in my prayers.

Today has been a bad day for me too. I hope you feel better. To see how my day went I posted it in posting just to post.

Love you hun. HOpe you feel better soon!!!

Hi BBK,

I'm sorry to hear about the choking and the pain and I hope you are feeling back to normal real soon.

Sending hugs, positive thoughts and quick healing vibes your way........
