Hi all! As Kim told you, I did not get back into my room until late. I have not had any nausea and no real abdominal pain. What I am having is esophageal spasms and my bllod pressure was high yesterday so they kept me medicated with IV Dilaudid for that so I got just a little bit of walking in last night. My blood pressure is better today. I am still having spasms but they are better today except that I have to take even smaller sips than usual. Dr Walton said I had very little bleeding -- factor works! The staff is a little freaked out with hemophilia and I am giving them lots of education. I get my next dose of factor in about 30 minutes and should be out of here this afternoon. Thank you Kim, Denise, and Ruth for coming by to see me! My husband has always been skeptical of online support groups but has a new appreciation after your visits.

I'm so glad you're doing better today and have a successful surgery!  What's up with those esophageal spasms?  Aren't you just the lucky one!? I can understand why hubby would doubt online support groups.  But then we're not your average support group.  We all have something very basic in common so it gives us a bond! Hope you get sprung out of there soon.  It always feels better to be in your own little nest at home! FYI - Glad to meet the hubby and your daughters are adorable!

Yea Nancy!!!  I'm glad you are on the bench.  We can get through this together!  Randy was also not sure about the on-line stuff, until he met some of the group.  We have the best group.

Glad to see you're around and posting!  I'm sure you're gonna love how it works once you get adjusted to life again after surgery.  Drink a ton of stuff and get those incisions to heal! T.

Nancy, SO glad to hear that you are doing well.  I can't believe that you are already online!  I hear if you have those spasms it is temporary just in the beginning.  Hopefully they go away soon!  Rest up!  Welcome to the club!!!  Diana
