Spent the 18th through the 28th in the hospital, had surgery on the 19th; a recovery issue that left me in ICU from the 20th to the 24th, then a fairly nice stay for the 25th through the 28th.

The doctors, students, and nursing staff were of some of the best I have ever dealt with. My lead doctor and surgeon was one of the best I have had ever, very straight talker, told the risks without asking, did not hide anything and had a great attitude. His two students were also two fantastic people. I was more than glad to participate in both of their studies assuming there would be enough left over tissue for them to use to further their hypothesis; the hard part was deciding which student would get tissue first if there was not enough for both. Also good to know both were also still doctors, just further training.

Surgery went well, took about 11 hours total due to my bodies abnormal anatomy. Nothing odd to report there. You get some drugs to relax (optional but say yes). They then give you some more drugs via IV and hook up the O2 mask and ask you to breath deep, that is where you go bye bye.

Recovery started well made it through the hour of main recovery where they watch you every second. Then a bit latter I think I may have went green button happy. For those that do not know what the green button is, it is a self administered pain reliever system. When it lights up bright green you can push it and get a blast of feel better juice. Well for one I informed them I had an intolerance to morphine so they switched that out to dedloden (spelling), however I am not sure if they adjusted the timer on the green button. Either way typically if you push the button to often typically you just pass out and do not stick around waiting for it to light up to push it again like I was. Needless to say I had a drug reaction that landed me in ICU. I also lost a full days of memories, I really hate that.

ICU, well name says it all Intensive Care Unit. They bug you ever few seconds, monitor everything they can. Come in and ask you trick questions like whats today's date knowing full on you have lost a day or two but do not realize it. Crap like that. Ok spent a few days in there only remember about 24 hours of it total and most was the final 12.

Standard hospital room was pretty good. For more part solo room which is always great. This hospitals food was actually damn good as was the menu selections and other amenities offered. Not to mention almost all of the nurses and staff are all students so they are typically much younger.

Regardless ended up with fairly good news, decided to change some stuff about my life even before and after I knew my results that I shall stick to. Was very happy to leave, and had already preplanned on spending x-mass in hospital as I have known and been dealing with this whole issue for a few months.

So as the title says I am back, sorry if you felt I ignored you. Also I am going to be changing a lot of the way I do and handle things from now on.
