Shrinking away nicely :)
Morning all just wanted to come on line quickly and post to say i am ok and doing good.
Ty so much for all ur posts of support, calls and texts am sorry if i have not responded
Well today i am 3 days post op and doing ok, pottering around and getting on with things.
I must admit i think i had a rough time as for some reason the way i was positioned in theatre for 4.5 hrs caused major probs with my back and caused my normal back pain to increase major which was hard to cope with and instead of having my morphine in my PCA pump had to have "Oxycodeine" to cope with the horrendous back pain and was not able to stand up till about 5 am yesterday morning.
By that time i felt i had had enough and had made up my mind i was going home that morning exactly 48 hrs post op.
But as i had the pain under control and came of the PCA and drip and catheter Mr Sufi decided i was ok to come home, but tbh i would of come home no matter what lol.
They were going 2 send me home with the same meds in my PCA pump but i decided not 2 as i dont want to be drugged up at home the same way as i was in hospital.
Had an ok nights sleep last night woke up bout 6 times to go to the loo found it a big hard to get comfy but was ok.
Already put some washing on and cleaned the kitchen a bit although it was nice and clean as Aaron had kept up with it all.
Will update more later, just wanted to let u all know all is good, finally i have taken my place on the losers bench.
After all my worry my liver was ok and i lost just over 18lbs in the 10 days i was on my pre op diet
One quick question of course i am on liquid stage for 2 weeks, does the not drinking for 30 mins b4 or after apply to the liquid stage, like i have just had a tiny bit of yoghurt should i now wait 30 mins till i carry on sipping xx
Take care all and chat soon off to have a little sleep as got up at 6 lol xxx
