I am so out of breath from doing all this running around and just the general stress of things. My blood pressure is 136/101 and my pulse is 103. My mom said its pre op anxiety.
I got my blood work and surgery packet.
They are gonna lop off the bad part of intestines and then staple good ones back together. I get to be intubated and have a cather and an ng tube. After the surgery I'm IP for a few days and I only get IV fluids and then its a liquid diet for awhile.
I will not be myself for about 7 weeks. I'll just be tired and worn out.
It was a lot of overwhelming informatIon. I'm just lying down to try to calm things.
I start the prep at 8AM on the 4th. Last time it was 5 PM. But I'm kinda glad becauae then I'm sure to be clear. I also need to take an antibiotic 3 times on Thursday and some other med
My mom will be with me during the days and then she'll go home and come back again.
I think my blood presure is down a bit
Therapy went well. My therapist was spilling gossip about a therapist who got fired and her boss would sign some paper to get her next degree but the boss wouId write that this therapist is transphobic and racist. My mom said my therapist shouldnt have told me all that.
