Okay lets see, went home on Weds. finally. I just told them I felt better because I wanted to leave so badly. Lord I couldn't sleep there. Between them waking me up to check blood pressure and taking blood and then the noise from the break room right beside mine, I just wanted a night in my own bed.
So all is going well at home...Thurs, Friday...spent the day with Clay and Livi. Grocery shopping, running around getting kids. I did have to take a nap..still taking the naps. but other then that everything was going great. Then Saturday morning.. BAM...my stomach again is just blah. Nausea like you wouldn't believe..the worst stink burps, they were so bad I was making myself sick. Clay called the Dr. and they told him to keep an eye on me and if I started to run a fever take me to the emergency room. They were worried about blocked bowels, infection that sort of thing. So around 6 pm I start to run a fever. Long story short, go to the ER, x-rays and CT of belly show I have a kidney stone. A big one, that is completely blocking my left kidney. I'm one of the lucky few who do not have any pain, just the nausea. It did cause an infection in my kidney, so I got to spend the night in the hospital again while getting IV antibiotics.
Crazy crazy two weeks. Healing great from the hysterectomy. Had my 2 week check up, and I'm doing great. So far none of the nasty side effects. Other then being tired I'm fine. I do have some groin pain, which Dr Hines says should go away. Now it is unpleasant. Burns like a mofo! Seems my nerves and muscles have been cut one to many times, so there is some scar tissue..yadda yadda. It comes out of no where and just about drops me to my knees. Hopefully it will resolve itself soon! Great news, pathology report came back all clear. No cancer at all in the uterus, tubes, ovaries or the lovely mole he removed.
Had a stent put on this past Monday..another surgery. This coming Friday I get to have the kidney stone blasted..another out patient surgery. Then hopefully the stone will pass and the stent will be taken out, my pain will resolve itself and I will get to go back to normal. Well as normal as you can be with out hormones..lol
Its done, I'm glad its done. I have lowered my chances of breast cancer by 50 percent, and have pretty much put myself in the clear for Ovarian cancer. I have another breast biopsy on Tuesday. Of course this is now part of my life..watching and waiting...I'm good. I'm healthy...I'm alive and cancer free.
