Yesterday was my first post-op appt and it went well.  PS is pleased with my healing so far.  He did ask what I thought of the results and I told him that I'm not focusing on that yet as last time it was the two week mark when I was able to see the outcome due to swelling, etc.  Have to go back next Friday for another appt.  I asked him if I could drive and he said as long as I feel up to it as I'm not taking any pain medication.

Last night I finally slept more than two hours at a time and feel so much better today!    For anyone thinking about a revision - the recovery hasn't been half as bad as the first time around.  Probably due to no stomach work and no drains!!

If I ever get brave enough I might post some pictures....
