Hey all..another update in case I don't get back here in the next week. Had the consult with the surgeon and I'm having a bowel re-section done on March 30. He's taking a section of my sigmoid colon out and sewing the colon ends together. Hopefully it will be laparoscopic, 5 incisions. It's a 4 hour surgery, in the hospital for about 5 days, recovery at home for 2-3 weeks. I'm bummed but I guess it has to be done. It won't get better and it could get a lot worse. I'm super nervous, can't wait for it all to be over. I have jittery butterflies every day.
Good news is I'm getting my first covid vaccination on the 25th! 3 weeks later, I get the second dose. I'll be glad when that's behind me, too. Anyway, any positive juju vibes you want to send my way are appreciated. Hopefully I make it through without any complications. I'm only 53, I've a lotta years I'd like to live yet! lol Love you guys. xo
