Update 2.... Back home. Addendum
5 years ago
Ngoooo... Shit. That wwas single handedly, the weirdest experience I've ever had in my life.
First off, Thank-You to all the well wishes, wasn't anything super serious, but it was invasive enough that I was put under. As I pointed out in my RETURN journal, I lost a lot of weight, this left me with some extra skin, it also left me with some kind of hard fat nodules in my chest, which could cause me some health issues down the road.
So, I was given a choice to have these removed surgically, I opted to. I now have this compression thing around my chest that has two tubes connected to tiny bottles on either side of me. Their purpose? Collecting extra surgery "juice" of course XD. They're actually for drainage. I empty them twice a day.
Pain wise, I'm doing alright. I'm LITERALLY not allowed to do pretty much ANYTHING labor intensive for a month, not even stretch my arms over my head or even use them to readjust myself on my bed. I have ZERO appetite right now, not nausea or anything, I just don't get hungry. I have to make sure I eat something to help my healing.
If you've NEVER have surgery before, man, that shit is crazy. They were wheeling me to the OR (Operating Room), and the nurse gave me what she called "The Good Stuff", on the way. I was waiting to feel myself drift off, but it didn't happen. They put the oxygen mask on me and just asked me to breath. I blinked, AND THE SURGERY WAS OVER!
There was no warning or anything. I was out for like like 3 hours. It was literally like someone just cut the surgery scene for time or something. XD
But man, that whole deal was strange. Well, I pretty much sleep more than anything else right now. Gonna go ahead and do that. Just wanted to let you guys know, I'm good. Everything went without a hitch!
Update: Thanx for all your well wishes! I'm doing much better now. My appetite is coming back. Still sleeping a lot though. guess that comes with the territory. Might upload some pictures of what this bandaged monstrosity looks like.

Wishing you a speedy recovery! :)
i was lying in the operating table with a mask on, the doctors said "allright, we're put on the gas, you'll fall asleep." and then, all i could do is... fall asleep.
