I'm writing this from the hospital where I'll be for another couple of days. The plan was to do my hysterectomy lapooscopically, but there was a complication. First, it took both anesthesiologists to get iv's started because my veins are awful. Once they did and put me under, they needed to invert me slightly to do the laproscopic surgery, My blood oxygen level dipped very low. After some adjustments and a few more tries, it was decided to lay me flat and do the surgery through a large incision in my abdomen. My oxygen level didn't like that either, so they proceeded quickly.They were able to remove my uterus , tubes, and ovaries. Then I dipped dangerously low again so the anesthesiologist told the doctor he needed to get me out of the anesthesia, and it would take too long to remove my cervix. So they quick closed me up. I'm in a lot of pain, have some pain from the surgery as well as from the intubation as they were moving the tube a lot.
I'm a complicated one!
I am so sorry to hear that our paths are so closely aligned in this battle. I will continue to pray for peace and comfort.
