Forgive me for the long delay in answering. I just haven't felt up to getting online since the surgery. I think it is bcuz I have to sit up and the pressure on my incisions and insides is not pleasant. I have no real pain and haven't taken pain meds since getting home, Wed. night for me too. And me too, my blood pressure went sky high right after surgery and thru much of that night but it leveled off and they sent me home anyway. I also had some pretty heavy looking and feeling bleeding from one incision site such that my gown was soaked w blood and had to be changed along w the dressing. but they said it was normal and just "old" blood oozing out. I wasn't real comfortable coming home what w all that and not seeing the surgeon again to discuss it (his assistant came to see me) but they pushed and I was self pay and didn't want to owe another $1,000 per night after some wonderful godly and loving couple donated enough for me to have the surgery in the first place! Well, not counting personal messages on various sites to which I belong, I am over 1,000 emails behind! I can't even seem to find time to delete the ones I don't need or want to answer! So, I'd better sign off. God bless, I am so glad u r doing well...ps I did have a scare in the ER sunday night but they sent me to surgeon Mon. A.M. and he said every thing is A-OK.
