The best news is that the MRI shows no stones currently in my common bile duct. If there happens to be one there by the time I have surgery, they will put a tube down my throat later to get it out. Gone are the days when they gut you going after that one last elusive stone. Good news; not planning on having another one of those. Good news; surgery will be about an hour and as soon as I can keep a sip or 2 of tea down, I can go home. Bad news; I'll go home to be miserable and can't drive until my pain can be managed with tylenol or advil. Worst news; no pool for at least a week. Good news; he suggested 2 weeks off work, but if I feel OK, I can go back after 1 week. I plan to feel good. Good news; my bowels may be a little looser!! Wohoo!!
Honestly my biggest anxiety comes from realizing that I will be bored and unable initially to do much about it. When I'm bored I eat too; more anxiety. To top it all off, I think I broke my tablet today, dropped it on the floor and can't get it to turn on....AAARRRGGGHHHH!! John, maybe Wed I could get my bike and drop off the tablet at the store??
Off to bed before I do any more damage. elly

While I can't imagine how loose bowels is a good thing, who really gives a shit!!
