OMG I feel fantastic! I was the model patient who did what I was told, got up and walked like I was supposed to, did my breating exercises and recovered very quickly. I was only in the hospital Tue morning til Thur evening. I could have gotten out earlier in the afternoon but the dr got held up in surgery & still had to come remove my drain.

I'm happy to be home! I can go back to work. I haven't been on pain meds since Wed evening before bed. But I do notice I get tired quicker & have to be careful when bending over.....or try to not bend over cuz it hurts.

Thanks for all the prayers & thoughts! I hope everyone else's surgeries go just as great as mine did! I wasn't even nervous at all going in and even walked myself into the OR.

Hugs,
Annie

I know! The middle of the night stuff sucked being woke up every 2 hours it seems. Like I had someone come in at 4am to get bloodwork. Give me a break! Did you have the things on your legs that kept them moving so no blood clots could form? Mine went off every 3 freaking seconds! I wanted to scream!

Congratulations!!!!  I'm so excited that you are both doing so well!  I, too, plan to be a model patient and follow all the rules and just do stupendously!!!  Can't wait to watch 'you losers' progress to your goals!!!

Bye ya'll
