JoJo_C 38 Posted May 16, 2017 I made it ok. They put me out close to 8. I was through recovery and back to a room by 1045. In recovery I had some pain, mostly in the area right beneath my sternum. Felt like the worst case of heart burn ever. The pain has eased up, but still getter my pain med every 3 hours. Have already walked the whole floor twice. Now waiting for my "water works" to start flowing again. 2 MSinger and Newme17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoJo_C 38 Posted May 17, 2017 OMG....the hardest thing about this surgery so far has been trying to urinate. I had to get an in and out cath this afternoon. Just spent 30 minutes in bathroom straining. I finally had to drag the garbage can over and put my feet up on it to isolate where and how I needed to push. Got the job done, but I am wore out.
