J POUCH BLOOD QUESTION!!!!

I was just wondering how you were doing this morning because you were having problems. Sorry I can't help, I am glad you are calling the surgeon. Maybe this is why you weren't feeling well??

Hey everyone... I've went to the bathroom 2 times this morning since the "2nd bloody one" and each time I've seen less and less blood... the first time there was a little bit of blood, and this latest time there was almost none, still a little bit on the toilet paper, but NOTHING like what happened to me overnight

I called my surgeon and left a voicemail for one of his nurses so I should be getting a call back soon, i feel a lot better though that the blood is going away, I was picturing in my mind something horrible going on inside me, like my pouch coming away from the rest of my intestines or something! IDK!

Thanks for posting this. I'm glad the bleeding is subsiding. Are you feeling any better now?

I am glad you are getting out and doing something fun. Let us know how your outing went.

oh that will be so fun! we keep trying to see comedians in charlotte but tend to miss them, grrr. Stand up is so fun, and it will be so great since you will feel good!

ingrown hair maybe?

hey everyone!

I had the best time I've had in a longggg time at the comedy show last night! It was absolutely hilarious. We actually stopped on the way (hour and a half drive) and got some KFC! I ordered grilled chicken (hesitant toward fried food right now) but they were out of grilled so I got original and I did absolutely fine with it, didn't bother me one bit. Anyways it was about an hour and a half drive, I had basically no urgency or any sick feeling and I drove the whole way.

When I got there it was a bit of a walk and I did fine with that.... got in and got our tickets scanned and everything, finally went ahead and went to the bathroom even though I didn't really have to as I really didn't want to get up during his routine. Now the show, kevin Hart is without a doubt my FAVORITE comedian and we were in the "pit" of the auditorium about 10 feet from him, it was an awesome night.... I contemplated getting a drink (first "legal" drink, but decided against it as I'd rather try a beer for the first time since surgery at home and not at a comedy show!)

But anyways, I felt REALLY good getting out like I did last night and had a great time. Slept all the way through the night... went to bed about midnight and got up at 6 oclock to go to to the bathroom! I've never slept that long since surgery w/o having to go.

YAYAYAY!!! That's awesome. Doesn't it feel awesome to go out and enjoy life again?

BTW - the bump - might be a scar from the drain tube. I know that I had one also and it seems to be reducing in size and going away but check with your surgeon just to be safe.

I'm so glad you had a good time!!! He is hilarious! Actually, after i first saw you say you were going, i looked for tickets, but they were sold out already :(
Its amazing how much happiness comes from just getting to stop to eat on the way somewhere.

Chevy.....just great news....I am so happy for you.
