Texas

TexasRose - Sorry I forgot to post here on my surgery yesterday.  Had to be at the hospital at 5:00am for a hysteroscopy/D&C again!!  Had to do this last year.  Anyway, I was first on the schedule.  Went to the OR at 7:15.  GYN removed a 2 cm uterine polyp and scraped my uterus.  Discharged by 10:30 - home at 11:00.  Had to lay down and take a nap - did not get much sleep the night before.  Napped for 1 1/2 hours.   Made myself get up.  Slept 11 hours last night.  Felt pretty good when I got up.  Had to do grocery shopping and then went with a friend to a baby shower.  Had to leave early,  Hootichie was pretty sore and back hurt.  Just overdid it today.  Had to take a Vicodin when I got home and am feeling a bit better now.  On the way home, I got a call from a very nice lady at the hospital wanting to know how I was doing.  I thought that was so thoughtful.  This hospital I went to is a Women;s hospital and the staff is wonderful.  Promised myself I would get lots of rest tomorrow.  I will get the results of the path report on Jul 10th.  So, I am back to the dreaded waiting game.  Will update everyone when I get the results.

Cheri - Thanks!  I will post the results as soon as I get them.

Am north of Austin and used a BS and PS in Round Rock for my June 5 surgery.

Jo - Thanks so much.

Sherryc-Thanks for the welcome.  Dr. Thompson in RR was my PS.

luvmygoats - WOO HOO!  on the good news.  That is what I'm talking about.

Hi ladies,

Sherri, I'm so disappointed that we weren't able to meet up!  Timing is always just a little bit off, I guess. 

I'm getting ready for Stage II DIEP surgery next week with Dr. LeDoux.  He's going to even out the girls, smooth out the blobs on my hips and belly, and then I gave myself the gift of added lipo on my thighs.  Basically, my summer will be over on July 12 - won't be wearing shorts for a long time after that surgery!  Then, it's back to work.  Our school year starts up again in August - teachers start on August 6, and the kids come back on August 13.  I should be back up to speed by then (I hope!).

I'm in Washinton State right now, and enjoying the wonderful cool weather.  I went from San Antonio to Phoenix for a conference - kinda like going from the frying pan into the fire, if you know what I mean!  Then, left Phoenix to come up here to Port Angeles.  Today's forecast high is just 59 degrees.  Ah, paradise!  Only a few more days until I'm back to the 100 degree heat of SA, so I'm soaking it up while I can.

Glad to hear of good test results, and healing thoughts going out to you, Jo! 

stard dust if you get a chance (and have a passport cuz now thats required) take the ferry over to victoria BC very pretty!!!

luv glad to hear that!

jo- you'll be hearing from me on the tenth!

 its been cooler here, not triple digits which is nice! 

TXstardust, I live in Phoenix and you're missing our big cool down, LOL - monsoon season is here, it should be storming off and on the next couple days and under 100F. And of course it will be back to 110F in a few days. 

I also lived in Seattle for 5 years - I echo TXRose' suggestion of Victoria. But if you didn't bring your passport, you're right in the San Juan Islands territory which is all I think in US territory - they are beautiful and you can do a ferry ride through all the islands. If you get the chance, it's well worth it!

Cheri 

yes cheri san juans are still in WA- this time of year its packed- i do SJ's in the off season (sept on) we actually are planning a vaction for next october...

Txstardust,  I cannot wait to hear how your stage II goes.  I am due to go in later this month but am having second thoughts on using my PS.  I see him in two weeks for a consult and if I do not get a better feeling about him doing stage II I might run to San Antonio.  I am in Dallas and what you are having done sounds wonderful to me.  Hope all goes well.

Sherry:  my next surgery is Sept. 7 with Dr. Pisano.  Hopefully this is the final one.

Jo:  Isn't it fun to spend time with Texasrose?  

Texasrose:  Let me know when you want to meet for lunch and give those babies a hug for me.

Jana 

Aw thanks. Yes Jana most def! These last few visits i've been running up to SA and then turning around coming straight home just because dh is at home with them. As soon as i can i will let you know!

Hi everyone! Miss you all bunches. I'm here in San Antonio - flexible schedule except for work hours M-F 8-5.  Dinner, breakfast/lunch/dinner on the weekend - just let me know!

Sherry, took the 304 exit off I-10 to see my DD in College Station, thought about turning right and going toward Gonzales to see you!  I want to bring my camera and get pictures of all the history there.

I know Chrissy B can't come from Australia again, but ladies we need to see each other again!!!! After surgeries, and healings, and busy times - somebody pick a Saturday and let's do this!

Welcome and I'm sorry Jill - what can we help you with? 

Sherry - It will be here before you know it.  Everything is going to be great.  My revision is coming up on Aug 6th - not sure if I am excited or nervous or both.
