My surgery was on Tuesday morning. It was basically a love-in with the cuddly nurses...lol! Mind you I was pretty drugged up the whole time. The last 2 days have been a blur.
It's Thursday now and I can barelt type. The pain was so intense the last 2 days, the kind that makes you squirm....%$&&&*&&&****!! ow!! If we have an earthquake or something I am SO SCREWED!
I doubled my dose of hydromorphone (an opiate) in hopes of diminishing the discomfort.The hardest thing is lifting the injured leg in and out of bed.
Now I'm just a vegetable..a veggie.
One good thing is that the second day after surgery you are allowed to take the bandages off. It wasn't the accident scene I was expecting at all. Nice clean incisions, Dr. James Stone!
Oh, and another thing I did is it's WAY easier to rent a walker with wheels on the front to get around the house than crutches. Once I leave the house, I'll get some crutches.
That's it for now..
