GeminiSleever 43 Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I woke up not even knowing I'd been taken to surgery! The nurse gave me medicine to "relax" me while I was in the waiting area. The next thing I knew she was waking me up asking me my pain level. I won't even pretend, the first few hours were awful. It took a little while for me to receive enough pain meds and I felt a heaviness as if someone were sitting on my stomach and chest. I slept a lot, too. By midnight I was feeling just fine. Currently experiencing no pain and zero sleepiness. I haven't yet felt any hunger, either. Complications: my blood pressure went through the roof as a result of the medications I was given. I've also been experiencing some pretty severe tachycardia. During the surgery they discovered an abscess on my tonsils, so I likely will be having surgery to remove that today. But all of those are minor in relation to how amazing I feel. I hope all of my Feb 9th Sleever buddies had good experiences as well.

Mrs. Reid 392 Posted February 10, 2015 Glad to hear you're doing well. Some people seem to slide right through surgery and some people have a lot of problems for weeks and months. I hope that I get through it like you did. February 24th I will find out! Good luck with your continued recovery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
