Finally had my surgery on Sept 10th in San Jose, Ca by Dr. Timothy Weibel. I could say thank Thank you, God for letting me come out of surgery okay back to my family. I could truely admit that i was as com as could be the day of sx. I took all my vitamins to the letter per doctors orders. I had a set mind that i would follow everything as my doctor had statef and knew i would be just fine. I was fearing having to go threw pain. Today i will say that i did not fill pain at all, im amazed by my doctors work in that area.
I was in sx for 5 hours, and in recovery for 2.5 hours only due i asked to be watch alittle bit longer than normal due to my votiming with the aneathia. Road home with my hubby, and my two caregivers my lovely oldest sister, and my oldest daugther. I could not have chose anyone better for the sx and care.
I immediatly starting walking and would every two hours to prevent blood clots and any other problems. Also did inhaling breathing every two hours as well. I didnt lose my eating appeiate at all. I continue eating lots of pineapple, broccoli, papaya, for my extreme swollening. Everyday its getting better. I will admit om very exhausted, tired and need naps. I am experiencing aniety often and dont like the feeling. Very sentamiental and want to cry... need fresh air. I still do have my drains, counting the day to come to have removed other than that i have no regrets what so ever..swollening go away to see my results...

Hello!! Here very happy today in one BC my drains are out finally. My doctor said everything looking very nice and clean and I seen for my self. Only problem is that tape was rubbing on my skin, and made a blister each side of at the end of inciscion. I told the dr last week when in his office... No, the know it all. And look what happens, cleaned and applied polysporin on gauze and attached... All I ask is that heals soon with no complications...stitches will be removed Wednesday back at doctor office...all other great...very exhausted...

The day has arrived...couldn't even sleep just thinking all night the day has finally come... Stitches are out, so are my drains... I'm very itching, but not scratching afraid to get infection. But, do have blisters from tape. So, the nurse and myself decided NOMoRE tape for me. Adding polysporin and gauze and tee shirt over than the binder, and boy is it tight... That feels really great with all the swelling I have, even in my legs. Is that normal for my legs to be like this?? Help...
