Surgery day.....what I wish someone would have told me....
1) When you wake up, it's going to feel like you have an elephant sitting on your chest.
2) It's going to feel like you were hit by a bus, over and over and over again!!
3) Breathing hurts becasue your diaphram bumps your stomach when you inhale
4) Don't drink caffeine becasue the withdrawl headache in the hospital - miseable.
5) At day 4-5 the pain goes away!!!
6) Sleeping in a recliner is much more comfortable then laying flat on your back.
7)Hospital Chicken Broth is slimey and gross!!

Went in to the hospital at 225.....9 days out 213
