Haitus - Hospital - important - update:: pictures
11 years ago
Hello there- i'm sorry for my lack of communication to notes, messages and other things. Recently the past couple months I've been feeling/getting sick often and my energy has been down. It wasn't until a few weeks back when I realized it was because of an infection to my gallbladder that ended up swelling and pressing into my stomach, liver and lung due to the gallstones that I've had for a year. ( i was admitted to emergency room after not being able to eat for a week and was throwing up constantly.)
Long story short I was admitted to the hospital and my gallbladder has been drained and I am now back home- bound and have home nurses tending to me since I have this narly tube coming out of my stomach now that drains my gallbladder which allows me to eat without throwing up.
Its been really rough and i'm sorry for not updating sooner i just haven't had the energy.
Thankfully the tube is helping me eat and sleep now and hopefully it'll be removed next week if the swelling inside has gone down.
My gallbladder will be removed fully once swelling is down fully and i've recovered from he draining. my surgeon says perhaps in 6-8 weeks I'll have the surgery for it to be removed (i'm looking forward to having this taken out.
I was diagnosed with gallstones a year and a half ago and foolishly didn't get surgery right away because i thought i could handle it with home remedies and just get past it. Which was very dumb of me. Now its infected and honestly i'm just frustrated.
I'm doing a lot better now though (compared to before) and I'll look forward to when i'm fully back up.
Thank you all for your patience- lots of life stuff has happened and your understanding is what keeps me lifted.
i'm sorry if this message seems scrambled- i'm trying my best to be coherent. I had no idea that gallstones could lead to something this serious and painful.
My wish is when my gallbladder is finally removed that the doctor will give it to me so i can personally crush it with a hammer for revenge on what it's conflicted on me. angry face.

Unfotuantly i was unable to attend the last week of my classes because of the hospital- thankfully the university is giving me an extended month so i can finish my final projects. I'm grateful for that but still unsure about how i'll tackle my winter term since during that time I'll most likely have my gallbladder removed during then.
I'lll tackle it as it comes.
thanks for reading my text wall.
Photos undeneath: warning blood, medical stuff, etc.
I spoke with my surgeon and apparently the tube may have slipped out in the past few days- now some blood is draining instead of full bile like it was before- thankfully it's not life threatening or harming. Tho it does concern me and I'll be having an ultrasound/xray this week coming up. and hopefully the tube removed if the swelling has gone down enough.

This explains the mysterious absence.
Good luck to you, and hang in there. In a month you'll be back to normal.
And yeah- i'm not looking forward to the recovery period : < and the hospital atmosphere is really draining.
Thanks for your support
and thanks man :'>
*hugs tightly*
It helps to vent- i just feel bad for the sudden haitus- i'm hoping I'll be back on regularly now!
And yeah- lots of my own friends have gotten sick as well- its been a rough months for lots of folks @_@
Glad to hear that it's getting dealt with though and I hope you feel better soon!
I hope that your surgery happens soon-- and goes super well! <3
In the meantime, enjoy some much-deserved good sleep and meals ahhhh
and yeah an art jam would be fun yo! I know hato wants to do an art jam too- we should all find a time that would work out haha
Ah thanks! :'] Yeah- my family has a history of it on both sides! so i should have guessed it would have become an issue but sighs. thanks- bud!
Nooo don't wait, find out how long it'll take to recover from the gall bladder removal and give your university as much advance notice as possible of any further deadline extensions or other support that you may need to request in the future. Update them once you have a date for the surgery. Better that than just spring it on them when it happens. :)
Get well soon!
Thanks
