Stricture Free
Okay. I just got home from the hospital. And yes ladies you were all right, it was a stricture. It was down to a size 5 and he made it back to a 12. So hopefully this will be the end of the constant throwing up. I just wished I had this in November when the problem started.
I can feel the difference already just in drinking water. I can drink bigger swallows and drink more. I can't eat for a few days until it heals, but I am eager to try solid foods again!!!
I got it done at Shea Outpatient. The only part that hurt was the IV and that just stings for a minute. I have really tough veins to get. The nurse asked me if I remembered it all because my eyes were open the whole time, but it was all pretty fuzzy. I remember feeling the tube or what ever in my throat, and kinda fuzzily remember them putting it into my throat. It didn't hurt at all. And it took like 5 minutes. It was really really fast. They give you Versed and Demerol so your pretty much on the moon, LOL. I'm going to go take a nap though because I'm really sleepy. I'm pretty sure later I won't even remember what i remember now of it. That Versed kinda erases your memory. Hope what I'm typing makes sense. LOL. Still a little loopy.
Yay! Glad your plubming is all fixed up and ready to go! Give it the TLC with liquids as ordered and then look forward to a great journey ahead!
You are a brave girl to stay awake for the scope! .....I about broke the docs arm when she came at my face with that scope. She turned up the drugs in a hurry when I hit her arm! .......
....have a nice nap and be well,
