Thanks for the update. Are things going better? It is a big surgery but oh so worth it. Sending lots of support your way!

How did your surgery go? I hope you're doing well!

I was in the hospital longer because I couldn't pee! I'll write a journal about it once I'm home tomorrow, but the short of it is that post-operative urinary retention is a not-uncommon side effect of general anesthesia, as well as oxycodone, which was the pain killer they give after surgery day. Dr. Penner said it's rare in women, especially ones my age (27) and who don't have urinary issues before surgery. Guess I just got lucky!

Your surgery at TWH must be coming up soon! Mine was on the 23rd, and they're discharging me tomorrow with any luck. Most of the nurses are very nice, and you'll be happy to know that my surgery went off without a hitch. Good luck!
