Out of surgery.

Surgery went as planned and I'm already home. RE says he believes he got it all, but we'll need to wait until the post op HSS to really see, since he thought he got it all last time (due to the nature of scar tissue, more could grow post-op).

Good news is - NO BALLOON! Yipee! At least I think there is no balloon. I'm still medicated from the post-op pain, so I wouldn't quite feel it yet, but I do think he said he didn't have to put one it. Which is fantabulous news!

Hoping I'll just have some mild cramping today with a full recovery by tomorrow. I have a roller derby skate-a-thon tomorrow night, so I hope I'm all good!

Anywho, just wanted to give my update. Thank you to all who sent me kind thoughts and prayers.

Wait - I just remembered a part of the conversation. I think he said he removed a polyp that was in there too. What's that all about? When did that appear? And why do these doctors give us information when we are all groggy from anesthesia?

I'm so glad that everything went well and that they didn't put a balloon in. But you'd think they could write this down or something if they're going to give you all this information when you're still out of it!

Hi Nancy, thanks for stopping by my blog. I'll have to read back through some of your archives to catch up on where you are. Hope the recovery is going well.

That's what my first surgery was for, a polyp on the inside of my cervix. It just appeared and my Dr said it happens to a lot of women, but if the woman has been having trouble concieving, they usually like to take them out just incase. That could have been why he took it out too.

I'm glad everything went as planned and you're doing ok! Hoping for a quick recovery ASAP!

Glad that's over. Hopefully, you're all nice and cleaned out now.

Hey, you are typing pretty well for somone who had surgery this morning! Glad to see it! Sounds like things went very well. Hope you can an answer on the polyp! I def hate it when you get these major bits of info when there is no way you will remember it.

I am glad it went well! Hopefully you will feel great tomorrow and I hope he got everything! When is the HSS?

Amanda said...

Oh yeah, by the way, while you're drugged up I'm going to give you all sorts of important info...wtf?

I hope that your oven is "fixed" and you're able to get back on the TTC ride really soon!!!

Yea, I'm glad its over, I hope everything heals wonderfully. But it leaves me to wonder, where do they go in to do the surgery that you can Roller Derby 2 days later? Hummmm, Technology these days.
