Home again

Ahhhh, to be home again!!!

I'm exhausted, but will fill you in quickly. I was taken by ambulance on Thursday to the hospital where I stayed until released today, I think a total of 5 days. I had my liver/pancreas ducts cleaned out and am returning back to my normal peachy color vs. the nice yellow glow I've had for the passed several days.

I'm pooped, so won't say too much else.....thanks to those who called, wrote, and prayed....keep doing so, it's all greatly appreciated!

Alive, Breathing and in pain

Hi all,
just a quick update. The surgery went off without any problems. It was a simple outpatient procedure and yes I have three poke holes....lol

I am still in quite a bit of pain. I feel like I've birthed my third child out from under my rib cage, so I have been heavily medicated the last two days and in bed sleeping.

Seriously I don't care what people say, this surgery was PAINFUL!!!
However, the pain is worth it to not have the "other" pain I was experiencing from having an inflammed, stone-ridden gallbladder.

My mom and dad are coming down today and my mom will stay for two weeks.....thank God!!

that's about it...........I will write more later once I start feeling human again

Gallbladder

Oh yes........it's true

Tomorrow I'll have my gallbladder out.........who knew this little organ could be so painful!!! YIKES

I went by ambulance this morning around 4am because I thought my appendix was going to explode. Turns out, it was my overly filled gallbladder, which lucky for me the timing was perfect as our insurance is set to expire the end of this month and my surgeon just got back into town from vacation, so he has an opening tomorrow morning......it couldn't come soon enough, I have never experienced such pain........and I've had two C-sections!!!


anyone out there have theirs removed? what can I expect??
