Got a bit more sleep last night. It's always difficult to sleep in the hospital. They are in checking on you every hour. Over did it with my abdomen. Took a shower...too much moving and twisting. I am praying this works. I forgot how painful this surgery was...of course I was only expecting him to cut open the top of my abdomen...not the whole thing.

Well I am home. Still not able to eat solid foods. I had such bad treatment from some of the hospital staff that my surgeon gave me the option to go home even with me not doing well. I will not return to that hospital ever.

Wow, that is sad they treated you terrible. They are supposed to be caring and compassionate. I hope God can give you better hospital to take care of you.

I'm so sorry. There should be a patient representative.
Also, they should be sending you a survey to get your feedback on your experience. Tell them the truth.
Your hospital does know better. Let them know what happened.
Praying for your good recovery.

I am up to trying eggs today. Praying they go through ok. Ever had to cough with your gut stitched together? Talk about painful! I am also off the prescription pain pill. Yesterday my face started swelling so I immediately stopped that med. I need to call the doctor's office to see if there is anything else they can suggest to get me through the pain plus the swelling in my body isn't going going away. I am carrying a lot of fluid.

Praying your doctor was able to clarify that, or possibly give a different pain med. Praying for your healing and recovery.

I had to see the surgeon because my incision started turning red at the bottom and the discharge changed color. He had to cut me open in that area and drained 2 cups of fluid out of the incision area. The pain relief was immediate. I now have the wound packed with gauze so that it can continue to drain. It's something I have gone through before. Although the first time was because MRSA got into the wound. This time it shouldn't be a long time healing and packing the wound. I am taking Tylenol and ibuprofen for pain management. I didn't want to try another prescription pain med since I am now allergic to 2 of them. Thank you all for your prayers.

Spent most of the day at the emergency room. Having severe pain with every breath. They couldn't find anything wrong. So this morning I have to get a prescription pain med filled. Oh joy... I am tired of this whole surgery business. Ugh.

Saw my surgeon yesterday because of the pain and needing pain meds. The ER doc only gave me enough for one day. The surgeon had to open the top of my incision. It was filled with puss....like an enclosed abscess. Hurt like hell but it feels better now. I am no longer in extreme pain with each breath I take.
Thank you all for your prayers.

One of my sisters is moving in with mom and I. The other is moving to Texas. I am looking forward to having my sister here. She is my mom's sunshine girl. She is the middle child, the peace keeper, the heart of gold in our family.
Not feeling the greatest today. Having nausea. Hope everyone is doing well.
