Only 28 hours to Go!!!
Howdy Ladies,
Just wanted to let u all know that I had my preop today. I will be keeping my ovaries for now. Doc is removing my cervix and uterus. He things that by doing just that, that my migraines should decrease. If they don't, when I go back at 6 weeks or whatever, we would discuss him giving the med that shuts your ovaries down for about 10 weeks and see how that does. If that helps with my migraines, then he will agree to go in laproscopically and remove my ovaries, but me being only 27, he didn't recommend it. Which after speaking with doc and dh, I compromised to this. I know I have said "if there is a chance you will have to go back in, then you better get it all now cause there won't be another chance", but ........ I agreed anyways just to prove a point I guess. The point being that, I know my body..... and I always want to prove someone wrong anyways!!! LOL!!!
I have bowel prep also!!! YUCK!! At least I am not having to drink that nasty stuff everyone else has been talking about. My doc gave me 3 laxatives in pill form. Which I guess is okay. I had my blood work and everything done today as well. I am good to go so far. I go into the "castle" Wednesday morning at 6am cst. I am anxious yet a little nervous. I tried to take a name this evening before coming to work....(I work 11pm to 7am)....and I kept having some funky dreams about the surgery. Like my uterus bursting out of my tummy in a song and dance act or something. I guess I am slowly loosing my marbles...hee heehee!!!!
I just wanted to thank all you LIW and you es out there for your support and responses to my posts. My sister should be posting on Wednesday to let everyone know how the surgery went. And then I will be back in a couple of days afterwards to post my "castle story" and give support to all the pre and post op ladies!!
