Back home after surgery.....

Hello all- I am back from the hospital after surgery Monday and want to thank you all for your prayers and well wishes. I came home last night but wasn't up to turning on the computer. I am feeling pretty good, just a little sore. The only complaint I have is that I seem to have a LOT of phlegm! I told the doc when she called today and she said to drink more as I may be getting dehydrated. I didn't eat anything in the hospital because I was scared of vomiting as I had a bad reaction to the morphine (so they think), which caused a LOT of vomiting Monday night which had a lot of blood in it. So, I didn't want a repeat performance. I have to get used to 'sipping' as I have only had 90 cc of water/protein drink today. So, I think I better concentrate on 'kicking it up a notch'! I am now a LAP RNY grad!!!! So, bye for now and I will keep all of you that have upcoming surgeries in my thoughts and prayers!

Lisa I am Glad that you are home and doing well. Nicki

Thank you so much Nicki!

Great news that you're home and all went so well Lisa! You are a LOSER now! YEP... keep concentration on that fluid and protein for now and when you can get moving around. I'm right behind you girlfriend. Only a few days for me now so I hope you saved some space for me on that losing bench. hugs, Marianne C.

Come on Marianne! I'm waiting for you!

Good! So you're saving me a seat Lisa??!! Great! I'll be right there very soon! How you doing? Hugs, Marianne C.

Way to go Lisa! Congrats. See you on the loser's bench Aug 14th

Lisa, It is nice to get back home isn't it ? My surgery was on 8/7/07 and getting home just makes it all better. I wish you all the best and hang in there... we are all in this together and it is nice to know all the support out there. JROSE R.
