I'm a lympomaniac!

This will be short and sweet. Last Friday I underwent surgery for the lymph node removal. It was outpatient surgery and I was home the same day. I feel like shit  I completely underestimated how  invasive this procedure is with five holes on the left side of my abdomen, one on the right and one in my belly button. I'm tired and my belly hurts but it's done. Results should be available late this week or early next week. Stay tuned........

  1. I would say have some booze and feel better. But, probably better to say have some pain killers and I hope you feel better.

  2. hang in there, you will do great. recovery from any procedure is often worse than imagined. When I walk this weekend, I will keep you in mind, every step of the way.

  3. Likewise, I've been thinking of you every day for the past couple of months. This isn't a pleasant process for sure.

    Hang in there! Sending all my positive thoughts.

  4. Thank you so much for the update, you are in our thoughts but I hate to bother you so this blog is wonderful for keeping up to speed. I'm so glad this surgery is done but so sorry your feeling bad :( any surgery is tough on the body and I think the stress emotionally must drain and exhaust too on top of the physical recovery. We are sending you huge (but gentle) hugs from CT and hoping so much for good news from the test results. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
