Thank you so much @Pacnorwest and @Sjoerd. It was a late surgery in the end..in the evening !! I didn't get back to my room until quite late. I feel very proud of myself as staff seemed amazingly surprised that I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom an hour later and at about 2am. Having a few issues as I came over a bit funny just after midnight feeling incredibly nauseous ( but wasn't) and extremely light headed but is passed in just 10 minutes and apparently my blood pressure had suddenly dramatically dropped . It happened again about 3am but I didn't call anyone and once again it passed over. Then about 6.30 this morning it happened again thankfully at the time a nurse was doing my obs. Bloods were low again and this time I vomited up all the meds I had just been given....7 tablets. She buzzed for assistance and 3 came and it was scarily manic in the room . I'm now on oxygen and being closely monitored. The machine next to me has finally stopped it's warning signal for low b. pressure at last and I'm feeling much better now. I have 2 friends that work here and they keep popping by whenever they have free moments which is lovely. Hubs and eldest son are on their way over and should be here soon. As I mentioned to Sjoerd, the recovery nurse who was assigned to me for the hour following the surgery was a very keen gardener and we chatted non stop !! ....he also told me that carrot tops make fab pesto..so must have Google about that as we couldn't write the recipe down in the recovery room. Anyway I will love you and leave you now...thanks again you are such kind and caring folk. Much love and hugs to you both.xxxx .
Thank you @Frank and @Netty for thinking of me too....what a great community this forum has created. My love and hugs are sent to you too.xxxx
Great to hear from you. Things are sounding good. Too bad you became a bit giddy for a while. Hopefully that’s gone for good. We are rooting for you. Thanks ever so much for the Sit Rep.
