Recovering

Well I am home now, recovering from my day surgery. Everything went well. The only complaint I really have, is that they rushed me out of there so quickly. I think I can still hear them saying "NEXT!" The day after surgery was really rough. I was really nauseated and ended up getting sick. Hubby made a call to the surgeon's office and they called in a script for an anti-nausea med. I am doing much better today. I am off the pain medication and only taking Tylenol and ibuprofen for the pain.

They did take my appendix and they found the culprit of my pain and agony for the past couple of weeks. It was a HUGE cyst on my right ovary. You can see a picture of the cyst by clicking the word cyst in this post. Yes, they took a picture of it for my scrapbook.

Appendectomy

Just a quick update because I feel absolutely lousy. I went to the OBGYN yesterday and she said that I am not having problems with my ovaries due to cysts. She felt it was my appendix and referred me to a surgeon. I saw the surgeon today and he felt it was my appendix also. I am scheduled for surgery on Thursday at noon. He will also do some exploring while he is in there.

It's not a boy....

It's not a boy, it's not a girl, it's an..............ovarian cyst! That was what was found during the CT. I have to see my OBGYN on Monday to find out what the plan of action is going to be. Surgery is not out of the picture yet. I will know more on Monday.

Just wanted to give everyone an update.

I'm a Mystery

I haven't been feeling very well for the past few days. It started with a pain in my lower right abdomen. The pain comes and goes and is accompanied by nausea and fever that comes and goes.

I have been spending the past couple of days in the urgent care to figure out what is going on. My white blood cell count jumped from 7000 to 10000 and back down to 7000 today. I had a limited Appy CT Scan on Tuesday that said that everything looked okay, I still have pain in my LRQ (lower right quadrant). I am going in for a complete abdominal/pelvic CT study with contrast this afternoon. Hopefully this will tell us what is going on.

I just wanted to let everyone know what was going on so you all knew why I haven't been posting on here for a while.

SP10 Reveal

My SP10 reveal package arrived yesterday! I couldn't wait to find out who had been sending me all the awesome yarn and goodies. My pal loves Elvis! This is sooooo cool because I love Elvis too! My pal this time around was Sandi of Hunka Hunka Burnin' Yarn. Here is what I found in my reveal package.



I had asked my pal if she could possibly send me another skein of the Romni Wools Angora Silk that she had sent me previously. She not only sent me one more skein, but two skeins of it and the Interweave Knits Summer issue that I haven't been able to get my hands on. I am overjoyed beyond words. She also sent me some really nice sock yarn and size 1 dpn's, a lens cloth for my specs, gardening gloves and some cute decorations for my kitchen window.

Thank you Sandi for being such a generous pal!
