Abdominal Surgery

[Sue McCoun <smccoun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

C & P Flintermann  I just went through hernia repair in and out in 7
hours. No major difficulty except more tense with tremor arising from bed.
Needed help the first two nights.  Went into surgery anticipating
constipation.  Dr suggested the standard vegetable powder in AM and in
evening and Perdiem - Yellow container - at noon.  That seems to be
working ok.

I was back to work in 4 days - but not full days.  Full time within a
week.  Tremor as result of tenseness in favoring wound is disappearing.
Age 60, diagnosed in '90.  Just be prepared to help up from bed, chairs
etc.for first couple of days.  Good luck
