    That's great, I get my stitches out today and hopefully the leaking will stop. I haven't been as bold with food yet although chili does sound good lol.

    Hey Jason,

    I'm having surgery with Almanza on Friday and just wondered how closely did you stick to the pre-op diet? Today was my first day and I'm already dying! I'll stick to it if I have to... But hard to imagine 4 more days of this.

    Hey buddy just checking in with you to see how things are going. Are you still seeping from the drain hole? Mine seems to have pulled apart a little and some seeping has started.
  7. My mom said the same thing about kaiser lol
  8. As long as the hospital and hotel are clean and safe is all that matters to me. Kaiser is right over the border if needed :-P
  9. Thanks again! That really does help :-) my kids and sisters think I am crazy to go to TJ for surgery ;-)
    Of course...they don't have to live in my body.
  10. Thanks for your input! I grew up in San Diego and know the not so pretty side of TJ, so I have been a little aprehensive.

honeymoon period is over

by BBCorvette18 on 09-30-2014 at 10:47 AM
Well woke up today to no loss. Guess that honeymoon period is over. Time to start on more soups and gelatin and start walking more.

Was a bit concerned last night as I was changing my bandages I "squeezed" around my incisions and one of them that hasn't leaked a drop for days started oozing a brown liquid with a little bit of blood mixed in.It didn't stink and I messaged a doctor friend and he said it was normal but it was a little interesting considering how much came out.

Want to start out by say its been a good experience so far. The group I was with went through everything without a hitch. Unfortunately I was the least nervous of the group and sure as shit I had the issue lol.

My mom said the average time for everyone else was about 2.5 hours from heading up stairs to coming back. I was gone for around 7 hours. Apparently I was dizzy, had high blood pressure and was bleeding a bit excessively. I only remember the last bit in the recovery room and
