Glad to be home!

Hi Guys! Just wanted to try to sit down in this chair for a minute to see how things are going. I came home yesterday and that all by itself has made me feel better. I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers. I had a safe surgery and everything went well other than my body temp and BP dropping so low that I was in the recovery room for about 3 hours getting hot blankets wrapped all over me. I had a lot of nausea during that time too, but thankfully I didn't throw up. It got better by the evening after surgery and much better after hot tea on the second day. I am really sore, but other than that, so far so good. I am really having a hard time getting in all my fluids, but I am managing. I have to drink constantly though. Amanda, my nutritionist, said it would be kind of hard for a while. I feel SO bloated. I get tired quite easily, so I am trying to move as much as possible and also rest quite a bit. Once again, thanks for the prayers! Good luck and God Bless You All. Hugs, Sharan

Woohoo Sharan! Congrats!!! you are doing just great! Hang in there! My surgery is January 6th with Dr Nighbert! I look forward to meeting you on the losing side at one of the support group meetings! Take care and let us know how you are doing!!! Rhoda

Sharan, I'm so glad you're home and OK. What's with the blood pressure thing? That happened to me too. Sorry I'm so late posting this but my computer has been acting up and couldn't get on. Laura Johns
