It has been an awfully long night. I probably should have gotten up and written in this cause I did not sleep very well. I am having surgery today at 2 pm. These docs don't mess around. I am having a hysteroscopy and a fractional D&C for diagnosis. Doc said he doesn't like what he sees and we need to get an accurate diagnosis before proceeding. He doesn't want to wait 2 weeks for a pap to come back so in for the surgery this afternoon. I hate anesthesia, but I do not want to be awake, LOL! I know everything will be ok, it is just that the last time I had to be put under I was under for 11 hours and it took me days to wake up fully from that. I know that I will not be under that long this time but I still don't like it.
Doc said I have 4 of the 5 criteria for uterine cancer but that only 1-2% of women who have post-menopausal bleeding have uterine cancer so who knows. If it is I will have a hysterectomy next week sometime. He said if it is it has been caught early and everything should be ok. Should be? It WILL BE OK! I already know it will be ok, cause I said so, LOL!
The worst part of this whole thing, I cannot have my COFFEE this morning or anything else for that matter. Mind you my surgery isn't until 2pm, but I could not eat or drink anything after midnight last night. I can have very small sips of water and that is it. I am gonna go nuts without my coffee this morning. I almost got up and made a pot just out of habit, LOL. Oh well, I guess I can survive not having my coffee, but I am gonna be one hungry lady by the time I get out of the OR tomorrow.
Well, gotta go take a antibacterial shower with this special soap they gave me, must be something new cause I never had to do this before. This soap doesn't smell bad, it will most likely dry my skin out and then I will complain about itchy skin, haha, never satisfied. Oh well, I guess, my firends I will try and update here tonight, maybe tomorrow depending on how things go, so I will TTYL!
