Day 1 post op Lefort 1

Barely slept all night. There was a lot of drama between all the vomiting, swelling, and nose bleeds. My nose, cheeks, lips, are all numb and swollen. Everytime I opened my eyes a new tray of liquid food would show up and I did not want any of it. The best I could keep down was water.

I had this wonderful device that would suck out the goo and blood making my mouth taste better. I need to get out of the hospital and stop by the surgeons office for a visit. The hospital would not let me go until I stopped getting sit. So I stayed still from 9am until 1pm and no episodes so I was released.

Brought a bin in case of sickness on the way home and kleenex for the constant nose bleeds and went to the surgeons office. They took x-rays and showed me how wonderfully the surgery worked and I saw a side by side comparision. It was pretty impressive. Off I went home.

My mom was home waiting for me and she was surprised that I looked so good. I told her this was calm before the storm as day 3,4,5 are typically really swollen...
