Some more stuff I forgot to post yesterday that I found to be amazing...the new doctor mentioned that with a fibroid filled uterus my size or larger, up to 20% of cardiac output winds up going to "feed" the blood supply of the uterine beasts! So, rather than being shunted to your muscles and other organs your fibroids wind up sucking up most of that blood. CRAZY!
I can imagine that I will eventually have more energy and that I will really be healthier just by having this surgery.
I think my scars will look cool, too ;-)
Today I went out and got my bottle of Citrate of Magnesium, which I have to drink the day before the surgery to "clean me out". It's carbonated and it's lemon flavored. Sounds good, right? Yeah--- except for the fact that it is basically salt water...so it is really, really high in sodium (450 mg for the 10 ounce bottle) and just tastes like lemon flavored, fizzy salt water. Gak.
I'll have to report on that after I drink it. I was told to have an ice pop first to freeze out my taste buds and then to drink it down. :-/
All for a good cause.
