Oh no. I am so sorry to hear that.

I have PTSD now (didn’t have it back in 1999/2000 when my original surgeries happened) and am worried that a long hospital stay would be too much of a strain on my mental health.

I had a lot of other stuff going on due to the septic abscess, gastritis, and more, so the length of my stay  with the ileus may not have been typical.  It does help to walk as much as you can after the surgery, and take it easy on the pain meds if possible.  I hope everything works out well for you.
