Hello all!
It’s snowing here in cincinnati!! 🙂 I’m sorry I’ve been slacking on my blog. Blogger still isn’t letting me upload pictures..
Today I had no appointments…because of the snow, we’ve just been staying indoors at the RMH. 🙂 I got discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon—so thankful. All the GI manometry testing made that 3-day inpatient stay really difficult and hard. Once the nurses pulled out that first NG tube and I was taken to the OR for the procedures two days ago, I woke up from anesthesia with two more tubes in me.. One through my nose again, and you can probably guess where the second tube was inserted.. 😛 Won’t get results till possibly next Wednesday.. After those two additional tubes were removed yesterday, I had to go through yet another tube insertion through my nose (this time, the manometry catheter was thick, stiff, and metal!). That was no fun. I now have a really bad sore throat from all the tubes and being intubated in the OR. On top of that, I wasn’t allowed to get up from my bed for several hours, so they had me use a bedpan several times…sorry if that’s TMI. 😉 Always a first for everything!
Tomorrow, I have a second sleep study scheduled. Pulmonology wants more info related to my sleep disorder. Don’t have results yet from my pulmonary function test. Hopefully this Monday!
Have a great evening! 🙂
