Update on Porcy
Switched yesterday morning. Surgery took about 6 1/2 hours. I haven't seen Dr. Engstrand yet, he is making his rounds now, so should be in here by me soon. They told my parents I did really well. I asked them to let me walk a few times last night to get the gas bubbles moving, but no farts yet. I did just wash myself up and feel a lot better. Still NPO until Doc gets here (my throat is SO dry, ugh). They have me sitting up in a chair, but it's starting to hurt to do so. I think I will go back in bed after he leaves. So far very uneventful, so I'm glad...Thanks for your thoughts and prayers! Will update soon...

After surgery they let me rinse my mouth with water, but not swallow. It really help the dry mouth.
Everytime I walked down the hall, I felt better, so walk as much as you can. I walked every 2 hours.
Good Luck! I was amazed at how quickly I felt better, so hopefully you will also have a great recovery. Good Luck!
