Things will be good I'm sure. All the best, Ron B. Sorry about the blood loss, but that happens occasionally. I'm sure it delays your healing, but should prempt it. Path report should be good with your numbers. Time to sit back, relax and heal.

Steve U They told me I was a "bloody case". All three units of autologous blood were used and I was in the OR longer than normal. The uro told me he ran into trouble with the mesh from the previous hernia repair. I was just glad to get home. My wife mercifully went back to work so I could just spend the day resting (and conversing with the gang on this ng). Good luck to you on the path report. Remember that it takes longer for the insides to heal so take it easy, even when you start getting your energy back and start to feel like normal again. Thank you.
