THE DAY AFTER .....
I want to make a return. I have buyers remorse.
Honeslty I felt an overwhelming sensation of What the F*&K did I do to myself?
Did I really just have my insides rearranged? Seriously?
I wanted to make a return and trade it in for my old insides. Yep ... back to my
"looking like everyone else's insides" kind of insides.
It was a day of pretty decent pain, general feeling of being uncomfortable in the bed, the worry of what was going on at home. Hubby was at work. I have a friend visit and that lifter my spirits a bit. But I was afraid to move, sneeze, cough ... anything that may bust my new insides open. Because of this I think my back muscles were tensing up and my back was ON FIRE! The nausea was UNBELIEVABLE! They were pumping me FULL of anti-nausea. I have a catheter in and that felt really weird. Like I had to pee ... but didn't have to pee. Super happy for it eventually because my poor neighbor had the gastric sleeve and they did not have a catheter in her and she was up literally every friggin' hour poor thing. They were pumping fluids in us both like we were a water bed! I was not adjusting well to the pain meds.
THEN
They took my magic button away! OH man ... this was like HELL! Then the catheter came out! Oh boy now that shit hurt. I no like pain in the nether regions! The only thing I was enjoying were the cool balloon leg thingies they had on my legs for blot clots but they were a pain in the ass when I needed to get up to go to the bathroom which now I had to on my own because no more cath. I was really getting discouraged about my super hero powers. I was like ok so no magic button so now what? NO Vicodin for me. Then they came in and was ready to give me this small cup of liquid pain stuff and i was like um whats that. She said something and I was like ummm isn't that LIKE Vicodin? She said yea ... I almost died ..>NO NO girl. So she went to talk to someone about pain meds. She came back and said I could have the Tylenol 3 with codeine. They had to give me something I could go home on tomorrow. I gotta tell ya ... after drinking that T3 and once it settled in ... I WAS GOLDEN! *lights shine from heaven upon me* Halleluiah!
No MORE buyers remorse! It was like a whole new ball game now baby! It was on like Donkey Kong! I was walking around the hospital making laps! I was smelling the flowers my friend brought to me (cause they had to stay at the front desk) I was snooping around on people LOL! It was awesome. So after all that walking around I was actually tired and slept finally for 5 straight hours!
Time in the hospital is literally like a time warp. It is like a wrinkle in in the time continuum.
It is a fracture in the time and space cause the clock moves SOOOOOOOOOOOOO slow!
I am telling you, it's unnatural.
But I was feeling much better! That's all that counts. I was keeping my purchase and didn't want a return.
Here are some pictures of the week before surgery.
