T-T 6 Posted August 23, 2013 I had my surgery on Monday and due to a blockage I was passing bloody stool and they have now stopped the Heprin shots cause they believe I'm bleeding inside!! If stopping the shot doesn't work I will have to have a blood transfusion!! Then who knows what after!! However my pain is not bad , actually feelings great and my wife is doing excellent and is now not a patient but is staying here with me at the hospital!!! Will keep ya posted.. Just wanna go home so I can begin my journey with my wife !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naynay209 21 Posted August 23, 2013 T-T, I hope stopping the shot stops the bleeding, praying for you. And all the power to your wife, she's a keeper. After I was released all I wanted to do was go home and rest. Prayers for both of you. I had my incision bust open 2 weeks after my surgery and wouldn't stop bleeding, it wasn't gushing, just kept bleeding. Had to change bandages like every two to three hours. I had to go back to dr and have them cauterize it but it finally stopped. And like you I have had no pain. Good luck to you again. Renee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
