What a huge disappointment for Candace. But this is major surgery so you have to be in the best condition possible to have a good recovery and outcome. Hopefully they can find out what happened and try again in a few weeks.
Better safe then sorry!!

Ha I figured out how to post!

Thank you all very much for your well wishes. I am very disappointed with what has happened to me. I really did expect to wake up with a pouch

They are not sure if I had an acute asthma attack, or anafalactic reaction to the meds. I have been given huge doses of steroids and antihistamine was given when I couldn't breath.

I am glad to be alive... But wish things went off without a hitch!

I am going to ask about a spinalto see if that
would be safer.

I feel okay, but they wanted to keep me in to
monitor me as I apparently have a lot of drugs
on board. Apparently it took a whole puffer to get me breathing.

I appreciate all of your kind words and really appreciate my angel who came today! I couldn't ask for a better angel in the world!!! Xo Liz!

 Candace, so relieved to hear that you are ok and they were able to combat your reaction quickly.

I'm sending you good thoughts that they will be able to figure out a solution that works for you and that your surgery is completed really soon!

Take care,

Candace,

I am so glad that you are ok.  When it's right, it will happen.  I have Dr. Pereira-Hong too, so it is reassuring to hear that she is so conscientious.  Thank God she was looking after you!
