Phew....Glad That's Over!

I was a bit worried by this afternoon (when they FINALLY brought me into the OR) that it might have to be rescheduled.  Why?  Because I suddenly started showing small bits of things that shouldn't have been in my bowel movements.  The doctor, however, said I might have had a bit of impaction that was finally being washed out and he would just do the best he could.  I think, however, that he may have given me an enema once I was knocked out.  I won't relate why I think so.  

He found a couple small polyps in my intestines and removed them.  He said they appeared to be the type that were not going to be cancerous but he sent them to the lab to be sure.  He said he would call me in a week or so to give me their report.  I think, however, that he will relay the info to my surgeon that referred me to him and I will see him on the 4th of May.

He told me that I would probably have a bit of bleeding for the next few hours but it should NOT be copious.  If it is, I am to return to emergency IMMEDIATELY.  I am also supposed to start eating a high fiber diet or else get some Murilax and use it daily to prevent any constipation.  He said that will lead to polyps faster than anything just due to continuous strain.  I do not have to have another one of these *C* things for 3-4 years.  That was the BEST news of all....LOL!

I was starving by the time I finally got out of the hospital and the Beast was sweet enough to stop and pick us up some KFC hot wings....my favorite.  He got some hot sauce for them for himself (much like the stuff on Buffalo wings).   Now I face 24 hours of expelling gas.  I sure hate that part.  But the Beast has left me alone in my computer room for the duration and I am sleeping in the recliner tonight....LOL.

I have a bit of a stomach ache.  I think I ate too much, too soon but it shall pass.  I'm not snacking at all but just sipping on my coffee.  The Beast has gone to bed already.  His leg was stiff and sore so he went shortly after soaking in the bathtub.  I'm doing this blog up early because they are saying we will be getting thunderstorms later.  Since it's already raining, I will err on the side of caution.  I was up late last night due to having to go to the bathroom about every 10 minutes.  So, as you might surmise, I am tired.  I hope to sleep well tonight.  

That's all folks....love you!  Be good.  Try to have a nice weekend.  ***Hugs***
