Surgery is over

bulldog · 11-24-2008, 09:17 AM

Hello everyone.....

I wanted to start by telling everyone thank you that sent well wishes and great energy to me. The surgery was a good thing. All though the pain after wards has not been great.

I'm still on pain killers for the pain and the soreness, but all in all everything is great. I'm still very tired but nothing a little nap here and there can’t take care of.

They were able to do the laparoscopic surgery, which was great.

I have 4 small holes and each of those have one small dissolving stitch in it. The stone was the size of a pecan; the doctor said that it looked like a stone pecan. So I was full of rocks in my kidneys but nuts in my gall bladder....teehee.

But all joking aside I'm doing better and it takes me a while to get around and I walk hunched over like an old man but I'm able to get all over the house.

Again thank you to everyone..... kisses to you all.

Kim

It's great to hear that!

I'm so happy that everything went well!

I'm glad to hear that you are well, Bullsie. Only recently I was wondering how you might be, hoping that you were alright. It's good to see my hopes have been fulfilled.

Glad to have you back! ^_^

Oh boy you bring back memories. I vividly remember the walking bent over like an old man. That will last for a while yet. The tiredness is most probably because of the narcotics and the pain. The narcotics usually take quite a while to get out of your system. You have to be patient Bullsie!

Did you get to keep the stones?

Thank you AndreaDraco83, Jaz, Squinky, Jelena and tsa for your well wishes

Nope... they said that they had to send it to pathology.... you would have thought that I would have gotten to se a picture of it or something.

Glad to hear the surgery went well and that you're doing all right, bulldog.

(BTW, you should be receiving my parcel really soon, if not already, it was finally shipped last week. Just DON'T injure yourself trying to move it, OK?

)

Mrs.R had her gall bladder removed right after our last daughter was born. She had her tubes tied with laproscopy and they went in at the same sights!
