HI Cindi, have a safe trip. I am doing well, So is Jennifer. I am pretty much back to normal. My incisions itch alittle as they are still healing, and my right side is completely numb .. but other than that I am doing great. Thanks for the message, think of you often. Take it easy when you go back to work , you will be TIRED.

I'm doing ok. I had a little scare earlier this week though. I had to go to the ER b/c I was feeling like I was going to pass out and had a severe headache (which I don't usually get) and my eyes were sunk in.
I was dehydrated. They discharged me the next day, and I went to my regular doctor. My blood pressure was high; 140/90. He drew some blood to check my Creatinine, but we haven't gotten the results back yet. I may know that tomorrow. So, I have to go back every week or so until it's down. What was yours at the highest?
The scary thing is that I'm on blood pressure medicine already b/c I have a heart condition that causes sinus tach.
I think all of this is happening b/c I've been moving for the last 2 weeks into a new house. It's a lot of stress.
If you come to work in Shreveport, we should get together for lunch or something.

Be careful. The rain is easing up now though. I will take care of myself. Bye.

I haven't seen anyone yet. I've been so busy moving that I haven't thought much about it. I will probably get it checked this week since I can't move in all this rain (Hurricane Gustav).

My diet has been horrible. Since the surgery, I've had an unusual craving for Coke. I drink several/day. I'm staying exhausted, but I just signed on a new house Friday and have been packing and moving. So, that's probably some of it. I haven't gone to the doctor to have my levels or blood pressure taken since the surgery. I'm still on week 3. Should I get my blood pressure checked? They didn't tell me to.

hi Cindi , how are you feeling? I was on the site, and wanted to say hello. I have been back to work 3 weeks now. Still low on stamina, but get stronger everyday. Jennifer is doing well too. I hope your doing ok. Happy Labor Day. Have a safe and happy weekend.

I would say my pain is about a 3 also. Sometimes it's a 5 or 6. The reason is b/c we're moving next week. So, I have been packing every single day. I do have help, but I gotta do it.
Gas pains are a lot more intense than they were before surgery. I think that's normal. Are you still taking stool softeners?

Sister,
How are you doing today? I'll be it's cold up where you are, it was about 50 degrees this morning in Bolton. It feels like September already. I hope we can take a ride to the beach next week. I am looking forward to spending next week with you.
Love,
Barbara, you ever and ever Sister.
We love you!

Well, yours went down. That's good. I'm a little worried about mine. They said it was .86 before surgery and 1.4 after. I'm functioning at 50% right now. I'm worried b/c the kidney that they took was the larger of the two; the left one. They said that in 3 months it should be back to 70 or 80%. Is that what they told you?
How are you feeling? You're still having the pain in your back?
