I finally made it to this side
Today is day one post op. My husband dropped me off at 5:30am (he has to work because of training this week). So I am at the hospital alone. I did registration and then they sent me to the pre op part of the hospital. I had to pee in a cup and have blood drawn. Nurses, anesthesiologist and my doctor came in to talk to me and sign a couple things. Then the anesthesiologist gave me the cocktail and I was rolled back to the OR they put me on the operating table then I was out. I woke up in the recovery room and was in pain. They hooked me up to a morphine pump that I can press when I need more. I started getting nauseated do they gave me something for it and I feel better. Then after an hour in recovery they put me in my room which is very nice by the way. I keep dozing off and I just had the best nap ever. I still have the catheter in and they said they will take it out tomorrow. So far I'm feeling great. The only thing sore right now is one of my little cuts. I ate some Graham crackers and Apple juice and can't wait to eat dinner. I'm really enjoying it here and being pampered because when I get home tomorrow my kids are going to drive me crazy.
I want to thank you ladies for providing me with so much information and support.
