Surgery Day!

[sangtarah]

My gallbladder caused pancreatitis last week, and I’ve been in the hospital since Saturday. But today is surgery day - finally will be free of this troublesome gallbladder! 
I’m a bit nervous, but mostly excited to eat again and go home! (Hopefully discharged tomorrow!)

Thank you all! ❤️❤️❤️

my surgery was around 5 yesterday and I ended up staying the night. I was in pain and exhausted, and pretty much slept for 14-15 hours. I woke up a bit this morning, but it’s been slow, lots of dozing. So far I’ve had 2 meals today, so now I’m feeling much better. I’m hoping they can release me tonight, since I am more alert and have eaten. We will see!

Glad it's over and you're feeling better.  Hope you can go home soon - it will feel so good!  ❤️

Thanks for checking back in.  I am glad it went well and that you got lots of rest!

Fingers crossed you get to go home tonight.

Well, I am home! My kids were so excited! My teenagers sat in my room and talked to me for a couple hours and I was trying so hard to stay awake. Still in pain, but I’m a terrible patient that hates pain meds, so I suffer through it. At least I got some sleep in my own room without being bothered every couple hours. 
Most people have said this is an easy surgery to recover from, so I hope that is my experience.

[Kassia]

Aw, how sweet about your kids being so excited that you were home!  They must have been so relieved to see you.  ❤️  Hope you get lots of rest today.

[mommyoffive]

So glad you are home.  That is so cute that your kids were so excited to see you.   Fingers crossed you have an easy recovery.

Sending hugs and positive thoughts for healing.

From my personal experience all surgery takes a lot longer to recover from than expected
