Hey, I just wanted to post a follow-up from my last post!

So!

My surgery went pretty well, was in the OR for 35 minutes (came out 10 minutes early) and was awake by 11:45. I was super-alert pretty quickly and chatty like nobody’s business!

As it turns out, the injury that was repaired was pretty close to as good as it could get, so this is good in terms of prognosis and in terms of recovery time. I’m also experiencing some discomfort and pain, but not a huge amount, and I wasn’t even experiencing any serious throbbing or pain this morning when I got up (I took a vicodin anyway; it had been 7 hours and I didn’t want to get blindsided).

They gave me a list of some post-op care procedures, which I intend to follow to the letter.

Other than that, I’m feeling pretty dang good, certainly a lot better than Thursday.
