My surgery was on the 10th and I was in the hospital until the following monday because of minor complications. the surgery only took 3 hours instead of 4. right after surgery my BP shot way up to 183/135. I kept getting really dizzy and near passing out. I almost fell flat on my face during leak test. I also kept turning blue so I had to be on oxygen. I was in ICU for 3 days then went to the second floor. They found that my pain pump wasn't working for at least 12 hours before I got there. I wasn't happy that noone realized that because I was in bad pain. Then They took out and re inserted the cathedar twice while I was awake. the last time I wanted to punch someone. they laid me back farther than flat and put the cathedar in and said she put it in the wrong hole and got someone else. and left me there. Ok there is only one pee hole that I know of so how could you screw that up. then she came back with the other nurse who decided to turn it in to a lesson. I got mad and was in pain so just put the damn thing in already and draw her a picture. Finally I got released from the hospital on monday. That night I went to my hospital because I started getting symptoms of blood clots so I had to get checked. no blood clots.
I went to DR G's yesterday and Weighed in at 447. woo hoo. then He said I was doing extremely well and put me to pureed foods. one thing that shocked me was when he checked my stomach. He just came up and looked and said aw you don't need this and ripped the steri strip off without blinking. ooww warning next time.
getting a little dizzy now so I have to end here.
Thanks,
Kelly
