Surgery rescheduled for 2 days later
Confirmation today came that my hysterectomy will be August 2, 2006. It works out so much better to have it Wednesday then Monday July 31.
My primary doctor "tried" to coordinate another associate-a surgeon-to try to repair a hernia near my belly button at the same time of my hysterectomy. It won't work-so I will have to have that repaired at a later date. If there are complications during my hysterectomy they will call in a surgeon since I have had pre consult. At this point my OB-GYN plans on doing the incision below where the hernia is and does not think that it will be a problem. The surgeon today was not so sure she would not have a problem so they worked out a "just in case" senerio. SOOO I may wake up with a bigger incision and it all done-not sure I want the bigger incision but I would like it all done in one shot.
The surgeon today asked for us to wait 3 more weeks so they could try to coordinate everyone together. I do not want to wait 3 weeks to get it done to accomodate the surgeon's schedule. I need to be recovered by September before drama and other school activities start. We are a homeschool family and I just have one 11th grader that will start in August (curriculum all set) but he is heavily involved with drama that starts 2 days a week in September.
Plus there is the fact I care for my husbands 80 year old wheel chair bound mother every other weekend and we made arrangments with my husbands family to cover our turn for August and pushing it off would mess up things for them so I need to have this done next week so I can recover by September.
This website has been awesome in helping getting ready for my trip to the castle. I went shopping today for the items I need. The lists really helped. I neeeded new night gowns anyway and a bunch of stuff was on sale.
Now I just need to rest up and eat good and enjoy life-hey with the extra day I may even try to squeeze in a swim in Lake Michigan!

Carrie,
I'm glad your hysterectomy date is going to work out well for you and your medical team has a just in case plan in place if needed. It sounds like you are going to be well taken care of. I hope everything goes smoothly and with the extra time, I hope you get that dip in Lake Michigan!
Best wishes!
s, Deb

((( Carrie ))), you sound like you are ready - it's great that you're you're so prepared
I hope that everything goes well and your dr won't need to call for extra help.
Enjoy that swim - Lake Michigan sounds chilly to me. I'm a whimp, here in deep southeast Texas.
