Bowel Obstruction

As you all know.. my second operation had to do with bowel obstruction after my first operation to take out my fibroids and a full hysterectomy.  It all started on the 2nd of July .. when the clock turned 12am.. and at 1am.. i was already puking.. and by 6.30am.. i couldn’t even stand up.. from all the puking .. and pooping.  I had thought i was having food poisoning.. and that it would go away.. once i had everything out.  But i had not eaten anything different nor new .. so i just didn’t understand.. why i was experiencing bad spasm.

According to Dr Murphy, the General Surgeon for the hospital, he had gone in to clear some blockage in the bowels and also patched up a small hernia.  But not much was explained to me.. even after i’ve seen the family doctor and inquired about it.   I guessed they don’t see a need for them to explain it to us.. since it will probably be too technical..??  but i would have much preferred.. that they do what our doctors back home does.. and explain..the pros and cons.. and be a little more graphic about things.. and what to expect.. and what to eat. .and not.. and what to expect.

Anyhow.. with not so much of any idea.. about my bowel obstruction .. i became very paranoid.. that i needed to poop everyday. .and if i don’t i get very worried.. and sometimes.. couldn’t even sleep. I’m pleased to announce that my poopie session is kinda normal now.. and even though i am not as paranoid.. i wished i know a wee bit better about what to expect.  I think i’m just a sucker for information . .and the more the merrier.
