Update from Surgery

So my surgery was yesterday. What a crazy day! My mom showed up a few mins late so we were hightailing it to the wurgery center. On my way there I got a call from my doc office that I was supposed to be there for the pre-op consult. I had no idea about it though! Thank goodness it was in the same building so I ran up there first real quick to have the consult. I pretty much knew what was going on already so they just had me sign the form and I did talk to the doc real quick. I went back down to the first floor and checked in for my surgery. They came out and got me and took me back. Had me change and do my IV.Then Ben came back and sat with me until they took me in to surgery. I was back in the surgery room for about 15 mins before they put me out. When I woke up I was in the post surgery area. I vaguely remember someone telling me that everything was ok. But at the time I had no idea what that meant. I tend to be pretty emotional when I wake up out of anesthesia. Then I could have swore I heard them saying something about me coming back for laproscopy and something else. So I was a wreck. They were trying to reach Ben, come to find out he had came home. I gave them his number and they finally called him and he headed on his way back up. Then my doctor came in and she told me that everything went great! They must have been talkin about someone else when I overheard them earlier!! They removed the debris (which wasn't scar tissue - it was ) and there was one 'bump' up farther in my uterus they removed as well but everything is fine. I could not be more relieved. I started bawling when she told me she was able to get everything out. I guess it took about 50 mins for the surgery. When I came out I was tacacardic which is why they told Ben I would be in recovery. I can honestly say things could not have gone any better!!! I'm so happy right now. I have to be on estrogen pills for the next month just to help my uterus heal but then we should be fine.:) I'm thrilled right now. I'm not feeling too bad today. I still hurt a bit and some cramps and my had hurts where my IV was but not feelin to bad.

Today is kind of a sad day for me though...I was supposed to be in a wedding today with some friends we had a following out with :( It makes me sad to not be there and see it.

That sounds awful to wake up from surgery like that. I hope you are healing okay though and hope that they surgery was a success.
