Darla Thorland drove me to my appointments in Rochester this morning. I've been through the testing and pre-op instructions; the consultation with Dr. Farnell went well. My friend, Plarent Ymeri, was present at that meeting. Plarent will be updating the blog in the time that I am still recovering from the surgery.
After reviewing the CT scan of the pancreas and cyst, Dr. Farnell approved going ahead with the surgery tomorrow, despite some remaining inflammation in the pancreas. Both Dr. Farnell and his nurse were very encouraging of a positive outcome and quick recovery. I certainly hope they are right.
The likely time I will report for surgery is 5:30 a.m., with a 7:45 a.m. incision (that is the term they used.) I should be out of the operating room around 3 p.m., with two to three hours in post-op recovery.
