Surgery Instructions

Ok so I went to see the other surgeon today and was she all kinds of helpful. She gave me the low down of what is happening and lets just say my body is turning inside out literally. On top of it I have a huge hernia and much more. After she is done explaining she says the following......

  1. No driving for up to 3 weeks.
  2. No lifting ANYTHING for 6 weeks.
  3. No work for 1st week
  4. Can work part time if tolerated for 2 weeks after 1st week.
  5. I will be in the hospital for 4 days at the very least. I will be in the hospital in Pendleton.
  6. The surgery will take 4-6 hours

I about fell off the chair hearing all this. I went on to say Oh MY I can't afford 3 weeks off work.

The Good thing is Mick will be moving in for the month of April to help me through it all. I think it is my turn I say.

No worries I do have my health care wishes spelled out in case anything goes wrong. Mick will be the person to contact if needed any info.
