The offical Rocken get better thread! (Read 231 times)

    Hey everybody! Rocken went under the knife today. She is doing well and everything. But now she's going to have some heal time ahead. I thought I would start a thread where we could just send well wishes and just generally screw around and entertain for her to read once she can be on the computer.

     

    So anywho, get better or I start giving your cat ideas like this.

    Body builder kitteh!

    I'm touching your pants.


    Feeling the growl again

      Heal up, Rocken!  Rather than trying to come up with the typical witty Hurtlocker humor, I'll just say that I am praying that this solves the issues you've been having and you can get back to normal....kicking some ass.

        I can't say it any better than this.

            Rocken, I hope you heal up quick. You are already a bionic woman. This will just make you stronger.

                Thanks Amanda! Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Surgery went well however here was a comaplication with the anesthesia. I may have a condition Psuedocholinesterase deficiency. I had a similar experience with my only other general anesthesia surgery but not nearly as bad.

                  The effects are varied depending on the particular drug given. When anesthetists administer standard doses of these anesthetic drugs to a person with pseudocholinesterase deficiency, the patient experiences prolonged paralysis of the respiratory muscles, requiring an extended period of time during which the patient must be mechanically ventilated. Eventually the muscle-paralyzing effects of these drugs will wear off despite the deficiency of the pseudocholinesterase enzyme. If the patient is maintained on a mechanical respirator until normal breathing function returns, there is little risk of harm to the patient.

                  However, because it is rare in the general population, it is sometimes overlooked when a patient does not wake-up after surgery. If this happens, there are two major complications that can arise. First, the patient may lie awake and paralyzed, while medical providers try to determine the cause of the patient’s unresponsiveness. Second, the breathing tube may be removed before the patient is strong enough to breathe properly, potentially causing respiratory arrest.

                  This enzyme abnormality is a benign condition unless a person with pseudocholinesterase deficiency is exposed to the offending pharmacological agents.[4]

                    I hope you heal fast - But I am confident you find a path on your journey in life that continues to bring happiness - I Hope that includes running.

                      I hope that you recover quickly and that this surgery resolves the issues that you were having.

                      Not at it at all.

                        yes that's it. I ended up being venelated for almost 8hours- it was very scary because I kept going in and out of consious I don't think I really knew what was going on until about 4 Hours after being moved to recovery. I had a GREAT doctor there-so now I get to wear a fancy bracelet and have to have all my kids tested

                                Glad to already see you posting, Rocken.  I hope that your recovery continues with all possible speed.
