Hi all, sorry I haven't checked in sooner, not feeling so great. Had my programmable LP shunt placed on Monday, still pretty swollen around the stomach incision but it is gradually going down, I'm going to have to go to the Dr's Monday since I've been feeling crappy, can only think it might be an UTI, don't know if the shunt is at the right setting since I haven't been able to be up very long. Will check back after I see the Dr.
Thank you all for your great encouragement, hugs, prayers and thinking of me. You are all so wonderful!

I've been wondering how you were doing and praying that everything went well, so it's wonderful to hear from you! I'm sorry you're not feeling that great, but hopefully your doctor can get you feeling better quickly! Get well soon!

Going to see my NS on Thursday since still overshunting...good news is since it is programmable can be done in his office in about 5 minutes, also getting staples out at that time.
Love to you all and hope you are doing well. Jazzy
