SINUS SURGERY UPDATE -RYAN

[Guest guest]

Hi! Just another Surgery Update

Dr. April (ENT)-was wonderful. He truly is a gentlmen and all around nice

guy. The 5 hour delay in the operation was due to radiology. They needed

someone to do measurements on brain/skull - he wore a mask screwed in gently

to his head like HANNIBAL...

We waited there from 6:25 til surgery started at 2:15 - the operation

lasted2.5 hours. April came out so so excited with color pix. of 's

sinus' - fun- he found a fungus ball behind the polup.........minimal erosion

to bone by eye, no nerve damage - and removed polyp. OK I will learn to

spell that word..

We got a room at 7 - he never fully " woke " up - he had a low temp 94 " -

they said was normal - and he kept throwing up blood. He swalled A LOT they

say - who are they????? My husband spend the night - I last called the nurses

station at midnight and we was still throwing up......

I am exhaused - I am tired of worrying.. My head will be all white and

my teeth will be grinded down to gums...........

Rosemary in New York with three children with CF - they are 11, 8.6,

4.8........

I coined the phrase " BREATHE DAMMIT "

I have the luck of the Irish....

I am very glad it is over with .NOW , he will do the " get better faster "

thing. It sounds like you have a really good " team " of docs at your

clinic/hospital. I am so happy to hear that. You know how we hear so really

goofy horror stories. Thank GOD that wasn't the case hear. Now get some rest

so you can be the " happy smiley nurse " when he gets home:):) haha Oh

well, we can't have everything------

love ya!!

LOVE , HUGS, Great thoughts,

Rosemary, high hopes for all. They gave me Procrit afterward and iron 625

iron and

325 Ferrrous sulfate--pink tabs for two months after my sinus surgery, for

what that

may be worth--I'll keep hoping, love to all,
