Yes, I am able to do my own post the day after surgery! A huge difference over the last one.
Surgery went well and we were home by about 430PM. The details....implants (Super B's as we like to call them) went in successfully, she opened the previous incision and increased it for a couple of different reasons, and she loosened things up in there. So the pain I am feeling today is in the middle and in the pectoral muscles (probably where the nerves are in tact). Slept very well on Valium and Percocet. After a day of nausea yesterday, it was good to eat a banana this morning and drink some tea. Overall, on a very positive path to recovery!
After this post, I plan to take another Perc in preparation for moving around the implants. Yikes!!! Every couple of hours I am supposed to move them around in circles, up and down, right and left, and towards the middle. Yowsa....not looking forward to that! A nap will follow immediately! :-)
I am so glad to have this surgery behind me. For some reason it had me really frazzled, anxious and emotional. Thanks to everyone for your calls, comments, emails, texts! Always appreciated and they definitely make me feel better.
Have a great day! Think of me in about an hour doing my movements! :-0 I'll update you tomorrow on how that goes!
Hi!!! GREAT news! thanks for the post!! Hope to see you soon!!
