Home for the Hospital

Had surgery on the 18th at 1pm and was walking in the ICU by 1pm the next day. I was told I set a record on the most walking a day after post-op, of course they could say that to everone. I get moved to a regular room that afternoon and was discharged at 12 this afternoon(21st). I an coming home drain free and I am happy to say I am currently farting nicely, so no gas pain yet. I have to give myself shots twice a day to help keep the blood thin. Blood clots are still a concerns because of my BMI. I am very glad to be home, I am very sore, but my honey bunny is out filling my scrips as I type. Still loks like 4 to 6 weeks til I am able to work, but I woke up from the surgery and feel like I have new lease on life. I can't wait to kick this weight-loss into high gear. As for what I took to the hospital, I traveled light all I took was my c-pap, toothpaste, and the clothes I wore in.

Congratulations.  Take things slowly.  So, you're farting and not having problems with gas.  Soon you'll be telling us about your FARTS.
