What a journey
Journey
The pain was unbearable. I have never hurt so much in my life. When I woke up I heard someone say she’s waking up… someone rushed over to me and sled on my garment. She through me around likes a doll and boy did it hurt. It was so painful when she put on the garment because I was sore after surgery and the girl had no sympathy for me. You can’t stop her or guide her because you still half drugged and too sure. Had I been fully awake and Mobil she would have been gentler. The girl next to me was tough in the lobby before the surgery but she was yelling and screaming ouch, please, it hurts, I don’t want it on... No!. I wasn’t as bad as her but you are helpless when you first come out. Anyway.
I was half awake when I walked to the car and I wasn’t ready to leave yet. They forced me out because some on else was coming out of surgery. I staggered to the car and was so happy to reach the car that I plunged into the back seat on to my stomach. The way I sled into the car pulled one of my tubes out. It was on the floor by the time I got to the hotel.
Omg! The hotel!!! Iit was so hard for me to walk to my room. There was no way I could have driven 30 minutes to the condo. I was happy I did get the hotel for 2 days and wasn’t ready to go then. For those two days I took my pain meds every 4 hours and sometime every 2 hours. I just wanted to sleep and feel no pain. I hated going to the bathroom. I bleed all over the sheets and bed. I didn’t care. I wasn’t thinking about a shower. I just kept taking off the soaked towels and putting clean towels on the bed so that I would have to lie in a blood soaked bed. I think I bleed so much because my tube came out. Those fluids should have gone in the tube…
The third day I was very sore but everything else seemed fine. I was told to get a massage but it was no way I was going to let anyone touch me or take off this garment except the doctor. I did go for the follow up, told the Dr. about my tube coming out and told him I was leaving after my visit that day. He said I may not need another tube, but he wanted me to stay in town at least 5 more days, so I went to the condo. The ride was horrific. So painful, I felt ever bump and crack in the road. I got to the condo and couldn’t find my key to the security door. Someone let me in and then my key to the condo didn’t work…. I cried. Finally the key worked. That was God! I lay on that couch 4 days and popped pills every time I woke up. I didn’t even want to see my results and wished I was at the hotel so I didn’t have to clean.
After four days of being on that couch I got up went for another follow-up appointment and got a massage this time. OMG!!!! My stomach burned terribly when I was getting my massaging. I could barely stand for her to touch me. It hurts like hell. I felt better afterwards though. I then went down to see the Doctor I told him my tube came out said that I had some fluid and he drained it with a syringe. He said it wouldn’t hurt and it didn’t. He said he wasn’t going to put another tube in, at least not at that time. I was ready to fly back home but he wanted to see me once more and I needed another massage. Another painful ride back to the condo.
I was late for my next appointment with DR. O and my flight was leaving after I saw him so he came up to the massage room and saw me in-between surgeries. He’s a gem and truly cares about his patients. When he saw me he said you’re full of fluids again. He opened an incision in the massage room so the fluid could drain. After DR. O saw that it was draining he went back to surgery. The amount that came out surprised me and the therapist, so unfortunately the massage therapist covered the incision. I was in agreement because fluid was pouring out everywhere. What I didn’t know is by the time I got home, two days later, the incision would be closed and those fluids couldn’t drain. Now I’m back in my home town and my stomach is still full and continuously filling up with more fluids.
It got to the point that I couldn’t take it. I was full like a water 3 balloons I could hear and feel the fluids in my belly when I moved it. I couldn’t sleep, eat, or anything. I was miserable. I was so upset, out of pain meds and uncomfortable that I went to the emergency room. They said they could do nothing for me. I needed to go back to my surgeon. They gave me more meds and sent me home. I flew back to fl the next day. As soon as Dr. O Saw me he said your full of fluids again, without me saying a word. You’re getting another drain he said and walked out. I said no and said everything I could to change his mind. I thought that he would drain the fluids with the needle again. He Insisted I needed to get another tube so I went back to surgery. I was awake the whole time. He talked to me while he inserted the tube. It really didn’t hurt like I thought it would. I was shaking and so nervous I could have cried. I felt some pulling and heard suction Nosies as he drained my stomach. After that I got up, his nurse gave me scripts for more pain meds and I flew out the same day.
Today I’m much better. Dr. O doesn’t want to take the tube out until I am under 25 ccs of fluids a day, for two days in a row. I have had tubes since the 15th of last month. I want this thing out, but I am being patient. I don’t want to have another one put in. I’m in hardly any pain. Still stiff and numb in the stomach area but it takes time to heal. All in all I am very happy with my results. Dr. O’s work is great; he truly cares he cares and is easy to talk to. I couldn’t have picked a better doctor. I will post picks soon I need to take some.
