Once again I feel the need to correct you all on which aphincter I hgave problems with, but what's the point?
No, blueerica, "passed" would not be the better term to use.
Well, I'm back, obviously. Came home this morning. Procedure went well, or so they tell me. I seem to be hurting a bit more than I did with my similar surgery last April, but it is manageablr with the percoset, which I just had a little bit ago, so I'm drowsy but OK. I'd slepp, but I'm sick of being in a reclined position. Although I may just keel over, cause that stuff sure does make me sleepy.
Surgery took about 6 hours. I have 6 nice new holes in my belly, ranging from 1/2 inch to 2.5 inches. They exended the cutting away of the muscles around the esophagus both higher and lower on the esophagus (referring to what it was fter the firdt), redid the altering of my upper stomach anatomy that had herniated above my diaphragm, and separated my liver and esophagus that had kind of fused together with scar tissue after the first surgery.
Thanks for the well wishes and happt thoughts. I'm afraid I won't be catching up on the 439 posts since my last vsit for a while. I actually had expected more than that to have to catch up on.
Thanks again.
