Hi! I arrived safely home from the hospital after a seven day stay. No complications, they just wanted to make sure my INR levels were good enough before I left. I sure didnt sleep much the last 4 days, I was right by the nurses station and had a loud snorer in the bed next to me. So Im tired. Gonna go take something soon and go night night.:thumbup:
Thanks for all of the good thoughts and prayers.:angel:
I'm glad im finally over the hump and on the recovery side of all of this.
I havent had much pain, just a little at the chest tube sight.
and of course coughing sneezing..etc.:eek2:
They did do the minimally invasive surgery instead of the full thoractomy, so Im glad for that, but the surgeon had to do alot of extra pulling and tugging to get in there that way, so he said im probably oin more pain than if In would have done the full surgery. But my recovery should be a lil shorter. Glad of that.
