Nothing like having the doctor call you at midnight after the surgery to ask you how it is going. I swear this man should be handing out Logo usb drives with his logo on it and information on what he did to you. It would fit his personality. I had taken codeine, was in surgery a lot longer than expected and very tired, so wasn’t quite up to having a great conversation.

The one thing that really stuck out was how he went on about how difficult and interesting my deviated septum was. I asked him about it yesterday after he took the stuff out… he said it was one of the most interesting he had had in years. He has pictures of it. Again… I could see him putting that on a flash drive and handing it out. I was happy until I found out they did not take all the stuffing (ie packing) out on Friday. I have to go back Monday to get the rest of it out. Needs more time to heal. At least they didn’t put more INTO it. That would have been worse.

My biggest fear now is hemorrhaging. If I lift something to heavy, push to hard when going the bathroom, sneeze through my nose… yaa they gave me a huge awful list… it could cause hemorrhaging in my nose. That would mean them doing more surgery. Not on my todo list. Thankfully Mamaw is hanging around until Dec 12th. I have more to go this week, but hopefully will be back online soon. Heck, it may be the only thing I can do for the next week to keep from hemorrhaging. Thanks for all the good wishes and good thoughts and prayers. They worked. Just a few more for this upcoming week… please.
