Surgery #2

I thought surgery would be on Thursday, but they ended up scheduling it for Wednesday instead.  I had to check in at the hospital at 10am on Wednesday, with surgery scheduled for noon.  It was a much easier process this time.  No "needle loc" or what I consider the most painful thing ever.

I got checked in, vitals done, beautiful green hospital gown on, IV in, and we waited.  I think they came and got me for surgery around 12:15 or 12:30.  I remember them wheeling me into the operating room and having me slide over to the operating table.... and then that's it.  I don't remember much after that, until I was back in my room.  Apparently the surgeon had a conversation with me, and told me how everything went, after I woke up.  I don't remember it though.

I did talk to the surgeon today and she said everything went well.  She said where she had to remove the tissue looked good.  She was also able to reduce the fluid build up which helped with my discomfort.

Now we wait for the second pathology report.  Here's to hoping everything comes back "clean."
