Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
This was what happened to me. My pancreas and a good chunk of my liver and who knows what else, had been eaten up by pancreatic enzymes spilling into my blood. So, I almost died. I spent several days in the hospital before I was stabilized enough to withstand surgery.
But the surgery itself was a snap!
Sorry you had to go through that. I also forgot, when in the hospital there was no food or drink by mouth, as they feed me intravenously for 7 days before surgery. Before I entered the hospital, IIRC, I weighed a little below 200 lbs. When I came home from the hospital I was so full of fluids, my weight ballooned to 225 lbs and that made me pee almost hourly. After about 2 weeks time I was down to 175 lbs, and now after a year, I'm about 180 lbs. I would also say that my strength has gone down quite a bit and never fully recovered from that episode.
