I Was So Scared



Recommended Posts

last monday i had a hernia repair and my tummy muscles tightened. with my history he told me i'd have to have the skin removed later. after waking up i learned i needed a blood transfusion cause i lost to much blood. then drs started going in and out of the room i herd one on the phone saying i think she has kidney damage too. i started to freak and cry not knowing what woukd happen. a nurse grabbed my hand and said will u trust me i wont let anything happen to u i promise. they finally used a mens catheder on me because i was so swollen a female one wouldn't work.\ and did get urine. I had two bags of blood that day. The next day two more bags of blood.

Finally on the 5th day everything was going good i got to go home. I have to say i have never been so scared in my life and tomorrow that nurse will know just how she touched my heart with her hand. I am starting to have bowel movements everyday which is awsome before the hernia repair it was every 7 days. My stomach looks great sure wish he could have taken the extra skin off but my health is more important so ill wait till next year for that.

My drain is still brite red i thought it would be like a light red. sure hope i get it out tomorrow. how long did u have to wear the pain in but garmet? The bottom of my stomach looks so smooth and flat but the top still looks pudgy. when will this start to look more flat/ thanks for any suggestions
