Surgery was completed this past Wed afternoon.
I thought I was at least "somewhat" prepared for the aftermath. This is much harder than I had imagined.
Now that I'm at home and at least a bit organized, I'm hoping to stay reasonably calm and get after the business of healing.
I'm able to take small sips of liquid gently squeezed from a small rubber cath and syringe. At discharge I was cleared to eat a full liquid diet. Hope I can do that soon ..not possible yet.
I'm also having a difficult time with (new & old)meds in pill form. I do have a pill crusher but the amount of gritty powder is frustrating X 10. Especially my size large B.P. tabs. I have a question to ask..
I was to call the clinic yesterday or today in order to
make an Appt...TBD (To Be Determined?) This was for f/0 and suture removal. I had my friend call x2 and I emailed X2 We did not receive a reply yet. Could it hurt the healing of the neck wound if the suture were to remain an extra day or 2? I live several hours from the clinic
Also....one of the Appts I was asked to make is for an Endocrinology.? Clinic. Is that just a normal screening?

Many Thanks for reading..and
Lots of Hugs to us all
