Updates from the Surgery Virgin

Day 2 was not fun. Actually, starting at Day 1 1/2 was not fun, but Day 2 was really not fun. Thankfully I slept through most of it. The Lortab makes me feel nauseous, so there was a lot of laying very still so as not to vomit. Last night the pain subsided and I was able to make it through the night with no pain killer.

Now the fun begins...

It has been 50 hours or so since the surgery and now I need to start walking on it. I made two trips to the bathroom sans crutches and then decided to take half a Lortab. Now comes some holding still before I try walking again. Wish me luck!

Ester,

I haven't been good at checking blogs lately so didn't know about your surgery until I saw you yesterday and read what happened. I am glad it was to hopefully improve things but still. I had never had surgery until my appendicitis in September and I am not a fan either. I hope to never need it again! I hope your recovery is very smooth and fast. If you need anything please let me know.
