Hey everyone
I have not been doing well at all. They changed my surgery to tomorrow at 1130am.
I am having my parital bowel obstruction fixed. We are just hoping that the obstruction just needs the adhesions cut from around it and that he doesnt need to take out any more bowel. Blah and a blah.
He said he will also take a "looksie"(yes that is the word he used, haha) around to see for anything else wrong. He will take cut out all of the 1164 adhesions(one too many surgeries will give you a lot of scarring!) I have in my stomach to make sure they dont cause any more problems down the road. He is also going to perform an endoscopy himself on me while I am on the table "so he can look at me from the inside out" and see if he sees any problems. He said he will go in laparoscopically but will open me up if there is any doubt about something...what fun. He said he would at least revise my midline scar if he did.
If I seem ok enough to keep at least liquids down after surgery, they will pull my PICC line out with I am soooo happy to see go!
Hopefully if all goes well I can be out of there by the weekend. I am sure my own missy miss lisamarie will keep you guys updated. Be well everyone and wish me luck once again.
