Surgery is Booked

It’s been pretty great honestly. My only issue has been with sleeping. I am a back or side sleeper and both are not really possible right now. Today has been the best day so far as expected. Took my first REAL shower and by myself lol.
I still can’t get over the staff at my surgeons office. I will never forget how calm, caring and comforting they made everything feel.

Honestly it’s not that bad. Took 1 real pain pill yesterday and immediately felt too sick to continue that. I honestly traded mild pain for severe motion sickness. Never could stomach anything strong. Ibuprofen is working out just fine!

Surgery was this morning around 11 and I was back in recovery before 2. It was so so much better than the 1st time around. Dr. Bidic’s staff far exceeded my expectations. I could cry thinking about how compassionate and considerate they were. Every nurse treated me as if I was family member of some kind. I did not at all get that at a past surgical practice. Literally changes everything. Dr. Bidic himself is equally amazing. Personable and warm, all around A+ facility.

Currently sore but again, nothing like my last experience. I am not a narcotics person, can’t stomach them so I’m hoping that by tomorrow all I will need is ibuprofen to get by. Nothing worse than vomiting after any surgery!
