It has been 4 four days since my suregery and I have to say all is well from a physical standpoint. I had trouble with vomitting from the first night, not sure if it was from the GA or the percocet as I am no longer taking the pain pills b/c what little pain I have is tolerable. Took a bath last night - simple pleasures. I am curious to talk with my surgeon as I have had very little dialogue with him. Other than thanking him after the procedure I have not really talked to him at all. I think my apt with him is on thursday and I am curious to hear first how the procedure went in his opinion and second want my rehab protocol will look like. He did come out and tell my wife after the procedure that there were no surprises, whatever that means. A neurotical hypochondriac like myslef would rather hear, sugery went PERFECT, I even put in a bionic chip which will all him to jump higher and run faster it will aslo increase his life by 10 years.
Mentally it has been tough-hard to believe it has been only four days. I have really enjoyed reading others posts and comments, I am also trying a rosetta stone spanish speaking lesson that I will begin today. Fortuntalty there has been good basketball on TV and good food coming from the kitchen, I have a on-call 24 hours aday support staff in my wife and mom so it could not be any better from a support standpoint. Just plugging and chugging untill I can get up and start moving around. Onward!
