Celtie's Home from Hospital

Hello OH Friends,

I survived the latest surgery.  PEG tube in place and laparoscopy confirmed difficult anastomotic ulcer.  Hopefully, the PEG will get me more

appropriately nourished to heal this ulcer and avoid the more serious revision surgery in the future.  I won't be able to utilize the PEG for

about one week-giving it a chance to heal well. 

I guess I was a bit cavalier in hospital about the pain/discomfort.  *sigh*  There IS more pain control (DOH) in hospital, but I'm managing ok. 

This, too, shall pass no doubt with proper rest, etc.  The best thing about this surgical experience was that I had absolutely NO post operative

nausea/vomiting issues.  That's always been a BIG problem for me.  This time everything but the kitchen sink was thrown at me and WORKED!!

Can we all say a big YAY!?

Anyway, thanks for rallying behind me-it's so nice to have people behind me that understand my tenacity and unflagging determination to retain

my Roux and successfully continue on my path to a healthier ME.

Best regards to Everyone,

Celtie

Glad to hear that they found a cause of your issues.  Hopefully this will allow you to finally feel better soon.  Sending healing thoughts.

So glad to hear you're home and all went well. Take it easy.

I am very happy that you are not sick and that they found the root of the problem. Glad you came through surgery all right. Stay hydrated! Take care. 

Thank you all my OH Friends for the kind words and support. 

Love, Celtie
