13 Days post op - Off to the Doctor

Well, I plucked up the courage to go to my GP today and hand in the letter from Dr. Dillemans. I handed it over and he was actually very positive. I wondered if he would be off hand, or enthusiastic, so I am glad he was the latter.

He then told me that he had actually been in the theatre during the first procedure of this time at a big teaching hospital where I live. That was nice to know, so he was fully behind the operation and knew that it worked. e also said that if I need anything else, just pop back and let them know.

The nurse chopped away at some of the cat gut that was sticking out of my scars, and even though I can still feel a little bit of it, she said that it will actually dissolve on the inside and then just come away, which is good.

They are all healing well except for the port site, and that is a bit weepy and sore. I have covered it up again so that it can heal a little more.

So there you go. He told me well done, and that I had made a good investment for my future and that I was brave to have done it.

Today I have had another new food.... scrambled egg.

I had some baby rice called Heinz fruit and yoghurt first, which I made quite sloppy, and then had 1 scrambled egg. It was good. Filled me up and thats what I want.

I had a jar of something revolting for my lunch, and am now enjoying a glass of orange juice.

I am enjoying the experimentation.

My teeth are all furry again, havent been chewing anything today really, so must go and brush them. That is the only thing that is a bit grim when you dont chew... the all over furry teeth. Ewwww.
