Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / June 2005I'm baa - ack!
Hi, everybody! Bob sprung me from the hospital this afternoon and I'm finally home! Thank you so very much for the prayers and well wishes...believe me, I felt each one there in my hospital bed(s). It has been a VERY rough week. I literally look as though someone took a baseball bat to my arms what with all the blown IVs and blood draws. The most obvious ones of course are the IVs up in my biceps. Yes, I said biceps. All the lower arm veins got used up after the first four days and they had to keep going up. Anyway, it's over now and I'm home. The gall bladder was "just a sack full of rocks" according to one of the interns. The surgeon was surprised because I had "the prettiest non-functioning gall bladder" she had ever seen. The xray, contrast, and ultrasound all showed a perfect gall bladder, but the nuclear HIDA scan showed that it filled up with bile, but never did anything with it...except make more stones, I guess. And then, when they pulled the tubing after surgery, my lungs filled up with fluid. So 24 hours in the ICU to get that taken care of. It was not pleasant. So now I just have to heal up a little - get some rest, you know - while packing and moving. ROFL!! We have 25 offers to sort through tomorrow, several at $20K over our asking price - sorry, Duckie! So we're on our way to better days. Love you guys!!! DeeTee  Signature________________________________ DeeTee and Bob Taggart http://www.marykay.com/dtaggart3 http://mysite.verizon.net/vze8fwov/ ________________________________ so glad you're back and sounding just like your old self! it must be a huge relief to have that over and done with. feel well soon and get a lot of help packing. i've been hiring people off craigslist.com and they have been worth double what i'm paying them. congrats on the 25 offers. incredible! i'd settle for 20% of that. diane Welcome back!! You were missed!! Jean Welcome back DeeTee. Sure glad they finally found what was making you so sick and doing something about it. Hope you will recuperate quickly, but please don't over do with the sale of the house, etc. Wonderful that you can take your pick of the offers and even over your asking price. Hope Duckie has good luck on her's and also Diane and John. Gwen > Hi, everybody! Bob sprung me from the hospital this afternoon and I'm > finally home!

Can't imagine driving around like that after only a few days. But on day 7, everything came back to normal and I felt great. Hope you continue to feel great for a while. You deserve a break! Adelle You sound so much better. I am really glad that is all behind you now. A new you and a new life ahead of you in Ohio. I am still pouting over the other...

Take care and recover quickly. And chance the gall baldder was the source of the other GI stuff you had going on? It'd sure be nice if you took care of several things with this one operation! You folks always make me rejoice at my loverly veins...... i've had phlebotomist call them hoses! heehee I'm a well circulated person! heehee > So now I just have to heal up a little - get some rest, you know - while > packing and moving.
