Home from the USA :-(
I am posting from my hospital bed, and I had bypass op yesterday.
Been a bit groggy since, but feeling a bit better now, been up and walking today. IV morphine has been making me sick, but since the drain in my tummy came out this afternoon things have been a bit better.
Just had sips of water so far, and my tummy is really not sure of those, it sort of spasms when I swallow, but it will pass I am told.
I have 11 clips in the 5 incisions, so they will need to come out in a week.
I still have blue wee! I think it's the dye they put in to check for leaks. I think some came up my NG tube too as I now have a nice blue patch in my hair that won't wash out, it may be a permanent reminder!
All being well I will be discharged tomorrow. I will try and post a bit more details when I am home, in less pain and a bit more co-ordinated!!
