My experience



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I made it home last night at 7:00. I saw a doctor this morning and my blood stats have gone up just not well enough. I am still draining too much Fluid so I still have the drain tube in. I go back in on Monday for more blood work. He really wants me to get some Protein going and electrolyets. He gave me a prescrition for low potassium as well. I will come around it is just going to take some time. It is Unjury chicken Soup and Vitamin Water with clear Protein Powder in it for me. Will keep you updated. Angie

I got the drain tube out this afternoon. I am so happy to be free of that thing. I can now sleep in my bed and not the couch. It was still over 40ml so I am a bit worried about what happens to all the Fluid that isn't getting to drain out. I asked the doctor and he said oh if you start to bloat up they will just cut you open and stick it back in. NICE! Anyway I am feeling good and happy to be able to just focus on my diet and keeping up with my Protein and fluids. Thank you all again for the support you all ROCK.

Hi Angie,

I'm pretty new here- a few days. I saw your post this morning and WOW! What a wonderful person you with such a lovely spirit! I pray I am able to follow your example of remaining positive and rolling with what comes way.

Thank you ever so much for sharing your experience. My surgery is 16 days away. I'm getting scared-

Please keep us all posted and share your progress.

You are in my prayers

Tammy
