On the other side!

Apr 09, 2009

Hi, all. I had my surgery as scheduled on april 7th.  I have to be honest, I was not ready for the pain.  I was surprised that it was so bad, but now it is much better and I am even taking just liquid tylenol now  The surgery went very well.  My Dr. said he found my appendix very high near my stomach and decided to remove the appendix as well.  So, I had the RNY, gallbladder removed and my appendix removed.  Just as promised Dr. Yasrebi was right there with me as I was awakened and did the first walk with me that was quite shacky at first, but the walks got better and I started looking forward to them as I would be very achy when we started the walk but by the time it was over I would want to walk more and felt better. 

All I am allowed to have right now is juice through the feeding tube and ice chips.  I talked to my Dr. this morning and he said I could start with some liquids by mouth tomorrow and could take a shower.  He said he will call me in the morning and let me know how to do everthing.  He is really great!!  More later......
