Sorry, I had no wifi in my hospital room (clearly they knew I needed to rest). I came home last last night. I had one complication, my pouch decided to leak so they had to go back and reinforce it. Other than that I am ok. I didn't expect a NG tube in my nose or a foley cath post op but the docs said they needed to monitor my hydration. I posted 2 pics, but beware...if you are freaked out easily don't look. The first pic is just a face and the second pic is my tummy-no sexy undies lol. 

Again thanks for everyone's support-Karen 

PS: I hope this all makes sense, the doc's gave me good drugs. LOL

I can't see your profile to look at your pix.  Says you're set to private. 

I had a Foley Cathereter too.  My last favorite thing.  Felt like I was peeing all the time.  

I'm glad things went well, hope  your recovery is smooth.

Sorry to hear that you had to go back to surgery.  I had surgey on 9/8 and stayed one extra night due to fever.  Nothing was off with blood or urine so I came home on Friday.  Today I went off all pain pills and am feeling pretty good.  Go for 10 minute walks but I am pretty tired after thatn  Using premier Protein and having no trouble getting it down....I actually feel like I am drinking a chocolate milkshake.

Congratulations, Karen! Glad they caught the leak and fixed it - just think... now you have a super-reinforced uber pouch!
