Well, I made it alive out of the op theatre ! I got back late this morning and I'm supposed to be putting my feet up, but I couldn't wait to say hi to you all lovely ladies and let you know all went OK. Thanks so much for all your lovely messages and good wishes while I've been in hospital !
The fibroid came out without resistance, it was grey amd spongy, and weighed almost 1 kg ( yey to losing 1 kg ! ) and it was pretty much dead. My OB who operated on me, said it a perfect op and he couldn't have wished for a better one. I think he was very relieved that things went smoothly, as I've already went thru hell losing Joshua because of this wretched fibroid.
The staples are coming out on Friday and the pain is ok ATM. I'm just taking panadol with voltaren tablets, I've come off the morphine tablets yesterday and I'm going ok without them so far. I tell you, going for no. 2's after the op was hell, all the pain relief got me so constipated, I didn't go until Monday afternoon. I think I must have eaten a kilo of fruit and prunes every day and drank 10 litres of water a day to make sure I did a poo so the could let me go.
Oh, and now I've cought a cold at the hospital, so I've got this dry cough ATM which is threatening to open up my poor stiches. But then again, I shouldn't copmplain, I'm just wrapped things went smoothly.
