Re: surgery complications - or what?
My hemoglobin was downto 7.3 yesterday. today 7.7, so a good sign. I suppose they'll watch to if it continues tocome up.
I still don't know anything about blood in the stool. I bet it will be Monday before they recommend anything next to do about that. It's making me scared. I just want to regain strength from this surgery (& it's been a week today and much better moving already) and go home and have some calm normal routines.
The diarrhea is still going on - not as frequent. I'm back on the tykerb and who knows how that's affecting the diarrhea although it usually doesn't bother me.
Is some kind of cancer usually the reason for blood in stool? I can't see blood ; they just took some sample tests and said it was in there.
