Having just been discharged from hospital, I almost forgot! It's Yuki's second hatchday! And now I feel like I might have missed Gwen's. Anyway, happy hatchday, my sweet little marshmallow!

I'm alright. It was elective surgery, so nothing to panic about. Just in pain and a bit addled in the brain, though that's wearing off now. Was certainly weird being a patient for a change. I have learnt that despite being described as 'slim' by the consultant, my abdominal wall is rather on the thick and tough side, so probably in more discomfort because it was difficult to make the incisions.
But I am home and well.
Yuki has had a piece of millet to celebrate and looks like he's gotten his energy back a bit over the past few days. I'll probably still take him for the check up next week though.

Glad you are ok and hoping the pain passes quickly.
Happy Hatchday Yuki! I've been reading about your antics ever since I joined the forum and have enjoyed reading about you.

Happy hatch day Yuki. I hope you're healing okay Ira, sorry to hear about the surgery, elective or not it's still traumatic.

It was definitely weird, ariella, and all the staff knew what my job was so they were probably cursing, because nurses make terrible patients. But that was also funny because the consultant was telling me what the different incisions were for when he wouldn't normally do so, because I'd know what he was on about. Hezz I changed one of my dressings already and the wound already looks a bit better than yesterday, so fingers crossed! Marianne Marlow especially when your body decides to not cooperate with the surgeon!

I’m sure you were a model patient. Good that the first dressing change shows some clean healing. Hope any tenderness or bloating soon dissipates.

Thanks everyone. I think it's mainly the incision for the camera that's giving me problems. The pain isn't horrendous but it's pretty much constant and then worse whenever I move. So I'm off work today and tomorrow, and we'll re-evaluate on Thursday.
The budgies are pretty much stuck inside at the moment, love them, because I can't sort out their things and OH is busy running around after me. They're all singing away happily though and flitting back and forth in the cage. They've even taken to playing with toys a bit more lately.
