I think I was on attack #4. Had the surgical consult. He gave the advice to show up in Emerg in the midst of the next one, let them dope me up, deny the drugs were killing the pain & then I'd get the operation. So this is what I did. I called a neighbor for a ride; sat 6 hrs in the wait room, then 6 on a stretcher. I think I was 40. Anyway, about 20hrs postop I discharged myself, took a cab home, had a day off, did Codeine for a week, then removed my own sutures (or staples; I forget.. I've removed staples on myself too). Was driving around, doing the mama thing within a week. Not much down time with a husband working 24/7 and no child care.

Good luck Aqua! Good thoughts. Saying prayers. :)

Prayers are with you.

Oh crap, so sorry to hear this, Aqua. Am crossing my fingers that you are getting the surgery you need, right now. Let us know how you are, when you can.

Great minds. Even as Sue's post appeared, I was thinking about Aqua, too.

I may be on morphine right now, but I can still suggest you forcibly insert that comment up your anus, jon. (EDIT: just messin' with ya; dunno if that came through well enough. I mean, I'm a bit stoned.)

Thanks, everybody. :smile: Out of surgery. They're gonna hold me a day and then I go home. No hangups. Thanks for all your kind words.

My stomach really hurts but it's so much better than before. Shoulda done it sooner.

Glad you're done.

You will be sore (a lot) today and tonight. Tomorrow will be better. By the end of the week, it'll be a nothing.

I'll raise one for you.

:clap: Wow. I cannot believe you are already out of surgery, and that you are already posting here.

So great to know you are done with this. You suffered more than enough.

Do you get ice cream? I think everyone should after surgery. :)

We've had two members, within days of each other, have their gallbladders removed.

Amazing.

What's more amazing is that they both posted within hours of leaving the OR.

When can you return to work?

They didn't say, but I'm thinkin' Thurs-Fri. Hell if I had to I could go in right now—it would just really suck.

Good news, hang in there.
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

Great news, Aqua. Glad everything went smoothly, and glad it's over for you (except for the pain, of course).
It is good to hear, that when the wheels need to turn quickly, they do.
