Home from the hospital
Had my surgery on Tuesday .Everything went good. Woke up very medicated. Got Morphin for the first day then switched over to oxycodone then onto Tylenol 3's. Had one little bout of nausea when I got up first time after surgery.
Home now and pain is manageable and no nausea. Showered before leaving hospital.
I'm getting in my liquids and everything is going very well so far.
