Guess what, PTers, I didn't have my surgery yet!! As I was getting prepped for surgey, They noticed that I was dangerously low on potassium! So they posponed the surgery to August 18!! I did spend two days in the hospital anyhow to get pumped with 14 units of potassium so that my potassium level will be up for the next surgery. The nurse said that it was the most potassium ever given to one patient!! (good grief!) I survived it and I'll be on PT until the 18th. It was a BIG surprise to ME too!!
