Top 5 Differences

Comparing Surgery #1 to Surgery #2:

1. There is no nausea, but I haven't much of an appetite yet and am eating about half of three meals a day. Joe did his steak dinner tonight (Previous Post-Manic Joe) It was great but I'm just not that hungry, not necessarily a complaint.

2. I am minding being confined much more this time. I feel almost well enough to drive and that's undoubtedly part of it. If I weren't taking narcotics for pain, I would probably go for it. Once the staples are out and I can switch pain meds, I'll try out the wheels.

3. Speaking of the staples, they itch and I want to have them taken out! It will happen on the ninth! I haven't counted them yet, but I remember how much it hurt to have them taken out, and I don't care.

4. Watching television 24/7 sucks. Last time I fell asleep a lot more.

5. I am going to end up with very little in home physical therapy. As soon as the doctor writes a prescription for out of home, I will change and go to the Tamarack location. It improves the whole body health far more than the in home therapy, and since I don't need the in home nursing this time at all, it's best to move on.
