Yay! I am now "post" surgery!

[ChristmasJanet 74]

Hi All You Fellow June Sleevers, I had my surgery on Wednesday. Went sweet. But, no story is good w/o a little drama right? They did the swallow study...thought they saw a leak...did a contrast CT scan...NO LEAK! YAY, PTL, etc. etc. However, the bad news is approximately 25 oz of contrast gulped through straws in a matter of hours into a 4 oz stomach = extra day in hospital to get tummy (both ends) happy again! Made it home this afternoon. Walking, sipping, and sleeping. I tend to be very quiet (unusual) when healing. So, if I am silent for longer periods, don't worry...I just like to be alone. Don't even talk much to family. The way I am wired...so, I will probably next post in a few days! But, everyone still waiting on surgery! It really isn't that bad. Just be sure to be a scholar and pass that first swallow test!
