XXShelXX 346 Posted December 30, 2013 Ok I'm ready. I am finally registered and I'm sitting in the waiting room holding my little slip of paper that says I'm number 10. Surgeries start at 7:30 and mine will be the 3rd one sooo I'm gonna be here awhile I think. I can take a good amount of pain so hopefully it won't be too bad. ..... Any words of wisdom?

LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted December 30, 2013 Yes!!! The pain will be 10 times less than you expect!!! Relax. The unknown is what is scary. I am 67 and used 1 dose of pain medicine at home. I was in the grocery store 4 days after surgery, and I was shopping 2 hours, 2 weeks after surgery. I have not slowed down since. I have so much energy and finally out of the chair I had slumped in for the past year. Loving life again!!!!! Best wishes!!!! First day of the best of your life lol!

Good luck, you will be fine. Everyone is different when it comes to pain. I was in sooo much pain afterwards but by day six I stop my pain meds. Keep your eyes on the bigger picture...better life, and a healthier you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
