Endo surgery

The weather last nite reminded me of camping. It just seems that whenever we go camping it storms. Nathan was at work so I was huddled in bed with the dogs, Jackson and Cash. We are able to keep out windows open because we have old aluminum awnings that keep the rain out. They may be ugly but they at least serve a function.

So my surgery was on June 9, 2009. I was actually very excited about having the surgery...thinking that it was going to be a cleaning procedure so that we could get back to ttc and actually conceive. The procedure started at 7:30am and I was in post-op by 10:30, eating a rootbeer popsicle. I was worried about the anesthesia because I often experience nausa. The took me up to recovery and Nathan was there to meet me. The doctor had spoken to Nathan,, but he didn't catch everything that he said and the details were sketchy. We stayed in recovery until 2ish and then I was allowed to go home and thank goodness. The ride home was the worst part of the experience. I was extremely motion sick and just wanted to get home. I spent 3 days on the couch...Nathan was a big help. The pain wasn't nearly as bad as I had heard it could be. My doctor called on Wednesday and wanted me to go in and get blood work for vitamin D. My second attempt to give blood was on Friday morning, my dad drove me into Cumberland.

I was up and moving about by Friday with just moderate soreness and pain when I moved a certain way, sneezed, or coughed.
