In Preparation Of The Operation

After many blood transfusion . .and blood testing every other day to check my hemoglobin.. the day has finally arrived for me to have the operation.  23rd June 2008, i was in the hospital by 6.30am.  No solids from midnite.. the nite before.. and i registered.. and very quickly ..i was taken to OR.

As soon as i went in.. i kept telling the OR nurses to keep me alive.. and Dr Muhkajee to keep me alive too.  I didn’t get to see my family doctor .. i was put to sleep.  Next will be when i woke up in the ward on level 2 of Yarmouth Regional Hospital.  Stay tuned.

Exercising & Keeping Fit

I got all dressed up for the hospital today.. and i looked really good after my surgery.  With the fibroids gone.. and the weight lost .. because of the ordeal.. i cannot helped .. but wanna look this way.. even in the future.. when i get well.  I have to make sure that I exercise.. but having winter here for 6 months.. is no fun, so I have to look into other alternative like buying an elliptical machine.  I really don’t wanna put back my old weight.. and look like humpty again.

Dressing By Ambulatory Service

In this town .. you can’t just popped into your family doctor’s office to get your surgical dressing changed. You have to call you family doctor.. and make an appt for the ambulatory service .. outpatients to get it done .. the next day if you are lucky. Although it only takes 5 mins.. it is still a big deal over here. Today .. i went to the ambulatory service to get my wound looked at.. because a surgical stripped had dropped off while i was in the shower.. a few days ago. My family doctor would do it today for me.. but i had to bring all the surgical strips on my own. Funny.. no..??  so no.. i opted for ambulatory service.
