I think that I welcomed you in another thread, but my memory isn't the best. So, welcome to the Golden Eagles. It looks like you did just fine in posting the message.

Whaddupppp

Hi everyone.... Here I am again raise:

What all happened ? ...
There was nothing, that was straightforward and plain-sailing

Maybe I should just settle for the 'outcome'
and not retread those steps getting here

There were tests and movement around that very large hospital
for the first, 3.5 hours...
I was SECOND in the queue for surgery having arrived @7.20am
and, I didn't go to surgery until @ 10.50am

The chat I had with the anaesthetist prior to the op
commited me to local anaesthetics 'epidural' [via spine]
The anaesthetist agreed this to be the best ~in the circumstances
For, in this way, the patient would be alert and ABLE
to announce my sensing something 'wasn't -right'
I found it very painless.... AND if anything could be a downside
it would-be the time, it takes for the anaesthesia to wear off

Having fasted, I was full of wind and only 'heard' it escaping
[flatulence, completely undetectable in any other way]
and, by no means, 'preventable'

It took more than five hours before I could get up on my feet
and my sphincter had 'locked-shut' [as Mary told you]

The staff, said I would be detained overnight
_or, until I could regain control of my water-works....and LET GO
THAT! was a so and so

By the early hours of this morning though _it was, again working, just fine


I had an intolerance of the Air-Conditioning within that surgical ward
and while staff did their best to alleviate symptoms
I was glad to get outside of the building
for the fresh air [very regularly]both, during the night and next morining

I am, completely overjoyed and grateful
to have come-through this... I didn't sleep much last night!!

Mary met me at the main entrance this morning
and we used our Golden-Oldies bus passes, to get home
[The anaesthetic, had long, passed out of my system]

My original hernia repair was by laparoscopy, however this one
was carried out, through a 3 inch incision, that, was stapled-closed
Arrangements have been made for a district nurse to call at our home
and, to remove the staples with some clippers that I have been given

I am on antibiotics for a week and have a supply of two types of painkillers
I know 'already', that I will been handing them in to the local chemist UNUSED
Truthfully, my body doesn't know it has been 'cut-open'
raise:

Anyway... Dave is 'back' \o/
Big hugs [on sight] for Mary..... awwww She is such a sweetie

Following last-night's, restlessness /breathlessness
I may have a nap soon... but will begin revving-up to-speed SOON

your Bro'

dave

 

[davedajobauk]

As I submitted the above post we have hail with thunder and lightning
I LOVE to watch these storms


dave

 

[angelwind]

Wonderful news Dave, we missed you...and we will still be praying for your strength to return and no complications...seems like things are going well. Yeah Jesus!!!!!!

 

[davedajobauk]

Amen Shirley Sis' onward, forever onward \o/

I am very grateful
that Mary was able to sign-in and be able to set peace upon your prayerful hearts

The power of prayer is indeed a blessing upon the 'praying' and the 'prayed for'


Psalm 116 (NIV)

Mary, is 'at-liberty'

I am however happy she chose me

Thank you Gail....
so-far, not even a twinge have I felt from that area
:woohoo:

The district nurse will remove those staples on April 30th

My doctor said she would arrange a thorough checkup
of my breathing difficulties [after my hernia repair]


My 'meds' are...
Co-Amoxiclav 250mg ONE x3x perday
Codeine Phosphate 30mg
Paracetamol Caplets 500mg

[servant of Merciful Love]

We are back from our walk and having brunch
Hope you all have a lovely day
Rest up Dave

 

[angelwind]

I have had a very slow start today...I think I will put in a prayer request for my pain levels.

I am not going to walk Gracie for a few days, that might help. It will be much hotter for the next 3 days anyway, then it is supposed to cool down again.

Dave you sound so good...Praise the Lord!!!!!!!
