Hi just checking in. Surgery was open and I'm still in the hospital. Struggling with crystal light so no shakes yet. Forgot just how painful this al is.

Talk soon

Sorry you had to have open. On a week or two, the worst will be over. Hope you get home soon :)

Hang in there and remember, pain meds are a good thing.

May I ask why it was an open surgery?

If you change nothing, nothing changes

It's my 4th open surgery. I have divaticulitus and had a ruptured Colan a few years back followed by multiple hernia s. Lots of scar tissue and stomach mesh to get through. Surgery was 5 hrs.
