Salvage update

well, they said surgery went extremely well a little under three hours. They actually were able to spare the nerves. Will go home tomorrow. I already did some walking and now dinner is coming. Thanks for all the support. I will be in touch.

Thanks for the good news. I hope your dinner will be tasty. Hospital food isn't necessarily five star…

It's actually a good thing. I had really bad gas pains for a few days after surgery. You want to avoid that.

Quite a shock to your body, surgery is. Just the biopsies I've had knocked me be back a bit. I haven't yet had the pleasure of a catheter, 😒 but I can imagine wanting it out! Good to hear you are otherwise well.

"aloytof drinking" Better layoff the booze. It's affecting your speech! 😀 Lols!

Steve1961

lol wowww been acheckuva week I guess no sleep drugs do that to you? I didn’t even know I started this thread anyway, I just walked 3 miles going to have to have my pal revoved today lol .i have a pretty bad chest cough and head cold going on alot of coughing they say this is normal but I don’t think so. Mine is extremely bad.. if it wasn’t for the coughing everything went pretty smooth. Anyway, it be nice to say goodbye to my little friend lol hopefully I won’t be leaking. Too bad. I’ll be in touch. Thanks for all your support.
