post op

Surgery went off without a hitch.

I got to the hospital at 7, was IVed and ready to go by 8:20, in surgery and put under at 9:20 (seriously, such a weird sensation. I don't remember closing my eyes and then I was waking up in recovery curled up on my side) awake and recovering by 11. I was tired and dozed a bit while waiting for Adam to come get me but otherwise I felt fine, and I've felt fine all day. No bad reaction to the anesthesia, thank god! If I did say anything wacky, I don't remember it at all.

There has been some bleeding but nothing major. I have pain meds but the only thing that hurts is my throat from where they stuck a tube down it during surgery (thank god I don't remember this at all either!). I feel good, I napped with Adam for a while and then my friends came over for girls night. I have finally hit the wall and am going to bed, hopefully I will feel okay in the morning too!

All in all, I am so relieved that this is done and I can hopefully move on with my life! I am certainly ready to. Everyone at the hospital was super nice and I didn't feel nervous or scared at all.

And my gyno is currently watching BSG so that pretty much made my day.

My hand is blue and bruised from the IV. I need to go to bed.

I'm glad the surgery went so well and that you are home, recovering and managing to even enjoy yourself. *hugs gently*
