Well it's been a rough few days since getting surgery. I have this constant feeling of nausea on top of pain. I've actually done really well with taking the pain medicine like my doctors told me to do. Last time (after c-section) I would only take it when things got REALLY bad. This time I made sure to not let it get to that point or my supply would decrease and I would be an emotional wreck. Even though I'm taking the medicine as directed I still feel like crap. Like a zombie.
I'm hoping after I get this stone removed (Tuesday is the date, hopefully) that I'll feel a lot more like myself. The procedure is called an ERCP. It's same day so I really shouldn't need anytime at the hospital other then to get it done. Theres no cutting into me so I really doubt there would be any reason for hospital stay.
I'm counting on Monday to go smoothly and the military to get us flights booked and on our way to Elmo asap. My doctor would like me to be there first thing Tuesday morning so we're hoping to be able to fly down Monday night, stay at Elmo lodging until Tuesday morning then get the ERCP done and fly back Tuesday night. That would be ideal.
I just really want my energy back so this needs to get done soon so I can finish my recovery. =\
