Yesterday was a better day, although I had only had 3hr 45 for sleep on Friday night, however last night I got 10 hours. So 24 hours later it is all a lot more positive.
I am very impressed with this whole set up and the wholistic approach. This I think comes from Prof. Worthington who looks after a lot of pancreatic patients and has found if they are really well and sorted on the nutrition front the outcomes are better. So I am befitting from custom made meals, the chef consults me every day – and the food has been delicious. So I am having TPN which is a complete food with calories intravenously over 12 hours at night. I also have a 24 hour drip, iv vitamins and minerals and I am eating and drinking. They have pumped me full of blood transfusions and I am now looking much less yellow and have more energy. So good nights sleep, good food, blood, liquid and a tailor made nutrition and I feel so much better. There is an underlying pain where they inserted a drain and where the gall stone is but luckily no reoccurrence of the phenomenal pain I had bringing me into hospital. It was without doubt worse than child birth! This is all controlled by a cocktail of pain relief.
I watched the ladies tennis final and had family visitors including my mother and her lovely friend Tessa.
