recovering from my surgery
Just wanted to update you on my thoraxic surgery. I was found to have a non-malignant carcinoma during the surgery on 10-8. My hospital stay lasted 5 very long days, but as soon as I got home I started to improve immediately. Every day gets a little easier. My daughter is having her vertical sleeve done on Election Day.
I have been told that all of the tests and appts. I had for my sleeve are good for two years. They told me I might only have to repeat the cardiology appt.
Of course, since I am recovering from a different surgery it is difficult to think ahead that far. I will keep reading the boards and I guess I will know when/if the time is right.

Years ago, I had a fibroid tumor removed and they put me in the Ob-gyn part of the hospital. All the candy stripers came in asking if I had a girl or boy and I had to answer, tumor. At least I got to keep my uterous so I was able to have babies after that. Everything happens for a reason. Glad you are progressing.

I have been told that after I recover from the lung surgery I can start planning the weight loss surgery again, although the though of another surgery is quite frightening. If I do decided to go ahead the surgery would not be scheduled until the summer.
