Hi everyone! Well I don't know whether I am suffering from post Christmas/New Year blues or if I am just getting nervous about next week's rectocele operation. I am no stranger to hospital, hospital is almost my 2nd home. However I haven't been under the knife since being diagnosed with Lupus. I am finding food just a necessity, but not really wanting to eat. I am very frustrated, getting a little snappy and sleeping worse than usual. I totally lost it today when ambulance transport which I know for definate that is was booked for rheumy appointment today did not arrive. I need to use hospital transport as being in a wheelchair and the hospital in another town I have no means of getting there otherwise. I now have to wait 6 weeks in which time I hope to be recovered enough to go to new appointment.

Dental appointment yesterday was no problem. Just hope that hubby's appointment with Cardiac specialist on 13th goes OK πŸ€ Then I'm admitted to hospital on 14th for op on 15th πŸ˜• I have to start eating and sleeping well before then 🀞

You have a lot on your plate. No wonder you are feeling stressed. Take it one day at a time and take care of yourself. I had an emergent cholecystectomy (gall bladder) removal last March. The doctor gave me extra prednisone one time post op but everything went well. I hope all goes well for both you and your husband. XNan

Many thanks πŸ’ 🀞 Just need to get rid of this dreadful cold, don't want my op postponed I've waited long enough.

Wow! Bronn, I am so very sorry for all you are going through, and all the snafus (like transport and rescheduling, etc.) It May be postChristmas and New Years burnout, but I guarantee that all this other stuff isn’t helping. Not at all. Please take several deep breathes, know you are loved, and what will be will be.

Sending prayers and love your wayπŸ™.
