Waaaaaa!!! News not good...

Yea, you can believe I was thinking all those words after my appointment today!! Some of you know that I continued to have pain in my side since my surgery...Well, I saw Doc Wynn today and after a morning of CT's and a visit with her it looks like I will probably be headed for more surgery - just not right away. The doc feels the pain I am having is the beginning of a hernia - the ct showed a small one. It is right where I had that abcess and drain for a month, so it seems that the surgery and the infection both were a little much and left that area weakened. The pain is from the muscles and such seperating. We are holding off on surgery though - she would like me to lose a little more weight before she goes in. The more weight there is the less chance of it healing properly. This is all very frustrating since the pain has kept me from exercising and makes standing and walking EXTREMELY painful!!! It has been bad enough that I have had to use wheelchairs to get around in the stores because I can't stand that long!!! Hardly longer than 5 or 10 minutes!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! Boy am I ready for all these complications to be over and done with!!!! So, if ya'll see me strolling around in a wheelchair, or doped out on pain med, or something, you'll know why. I told my husband I was gonna tell the doc to take out my gall bladder since she has to go back in anyways!! I would have a COW if I developed problems with that later!!! I guess we will have to see about that!! So, if ya'll would say a little prayer for me, I would greatly appreciate it!! I see the doc again January 13 th - I guess I will find out more then. I will let ya'll know what happens when I find out anything. Thanks for all ya'lls support and encouragement!!
