Staples were removed from the incision sites this morning. Thank God! Those things were more than a little annoying. Now just steristrips holding me together. Not really, but that sounded funny anyway.
The Dr. I saw today said he was on the night watch the night I had surgery. Said I was sleeping every time he looked in on me. I guess that's ok. He seemed nice, and even gave me a new prescription for something called Ursodiol, aka Actigall. 300 mg 3 times a day. These things are HUGE. And expensive! $1223.99 for 90 pills, a months supply! Thank goodness for my ACA insurance, I have a $12/month max for meds. But still, wow.
Feeling better, though I think I overdid my yummy breakfast of meds and orange jello as I was feeling very bloated and gassy earlier. That has passed now, literally.

Glad it's going well. Try the lime jello. It's better.
