Great Surgery

The surgery went extremely well!  I don't think they took me back until 11am or so, but our pastor, Liz, and Katherine all stopped by before hand and that kept us occupied.  =)  Also, I got to meet Kayla yesterday, which was great!  We've only been talking since November!! haha

Dr. Allemand spoke with us before the surgery to again describe what we were doing.  During the surgery, he took before and after pictures and let me have them!  The septum was completely resected.  When he looked at my right tube, everything looked great.  The septum had hindered his view of the right tube during the HSG.  He did upgrade my diagnosis of Endometriosis to Stage II, and removed some adhesions. 

My MIL, Peggy, drove from North Carolina yesterday and was at the hospital once I came out of recovery.  It was nice to have some extra help around the house.  Eleanna brought us dinner last night, so no one had to cook.  I haven't had much of an appetite; I'm just extremely thirsty!!  It was almost 5pm when we got home, so I never napped.  I fell asleep somewhere around 10pm or so and felt like I woke up on and off all night.  I had to get up to pee a lot, but that was expected with them putting me to sleep along with having a catheter.

Overall I would call the surgery a success!  I'm on the road to recovery, and am looking forward to what the future holds for us!  I will post my surgery before and after pictures soon!!
