Hi all,

Just checking in. I had my DS surgery early this morning! I'm doing alright so far, just really itchy and sore when I move. Getting some Benadryl soon for the itchiness. Was a bit dizzy when I walked for the first time. Other than that (all of which I can handle pretty well) I feel pretty good. First day of the rest of my life, right?
