Don't worry, Just take care of your recovery, I hope be soon.Had the surgery, recovery is really really tough. Way harder than the June surgery, and almost as bad as the Jan surgery. At least in Jan I had hospital staff's help for over a week, this time it felt like they were practically pushing me out the door. They sent me home with drainage tubes coming out of me, so now I get to explain to the kids that my blood bag is helping me get better. I'll spare you all the details, but bathroom stuff is super challenging and painful, I am minimizing the food I'm eating so I don't have to go as often. Sorry I don't feel very inspiring this time around, I just hope this is the last time I need to go through something like this in a long long time.

Good Luck Friend, may everything go well and we look forward to your recovery as soon as possibleSo it's been a rough couple months since my last surgery, I've been having fluid accumulate internally and sometimes escape from my belly button making a huge mess. What's worse is when it doesn't escape and the pressure builds up, leads to a bunch of aches and pains. They asperated/drained me a couple times, pulling out almost a liter of fluid each time. I spent new years eve wearing a towel under my shirt it was leaking so bad, lol.
The only thing I had going for me in my favour was that it wasn't infected.... until now. So now I'm admitted back into the hospital, and will be having surgery again, this time to reverse the last surgery and hope it resolves the infection and fluid build up. And after I heal I may need to try the previous procedure again (maybe with a different material my body is less likely to reject).
So yeah, surgery again this week, and maybe one more a few months after that.
It never ends!!! I was still supposed to be on vacation for a few more days, I was looking forward to playing more video games or monopoly with my kiddos, but I guess life had different plans. Wish me luck!

It's odd having these msg's in random threads so I replied here instead.Are you getting better?

Generaly, so far so good. Today was a bit of a step backwards with a small scare but I'm optimistic it won't lead to anything major
