The procedure went well last Friday. Actually it was my best experience with ansthesia, and Theresa and I picked up Giordano's pizza on the way home. (Two days later, I finally finished mine - delicious!!!) I am in very little pain, and don't even feel too groggy.
Being a pro at outpatient surgery (this marks surgery #8), I found myself distracting the stress acting as if I was a patient evaluator. It actually helped keep me level headed. Anyone wanting ambulatory surgery evaluation critieria from a patient perspective, please let me know! I have a long list I look for.
One week later, I am still amazed at how little pain I am in. I continue to keep my fingers crossed. Not much upset stomach, very little pain. I am still dragging, but (1) worked 10 hours each day the last two days; and (2) have a pretty darn good head cold, so who knows if it is the anesthesia, being under the weather, or the rainy weather we have.
So back on to normal activities this weekend! Thanks to all who expressed concern, well wishes, etc.

So I started this post on Sunday apparently. I finished it today, so really 13 days from TODAY is Disney!!!
So glad that you are doing so well! Surgery of any nature is scary and it is always a blessing when you never really realize what you just went through!!!
Are you guys driving to Disney? If so, you drive right past my town (just a few exits before Florida) - if it isn't too wierd...would love to meet somewhere out on the exit and grab some breakfast, lunch dinner....wherever you are when you arrive! You guys are going to have such an awesome time...I LOVE Disney!!!
You worked 10 hours? In two days? Maybe THAT is why you are dragging!!!!
So glad to hear you are relatively pain free and holding out for Disney! Man I can not WAIT for those pictures!!!!!!!!! Jax is going to LOVE it!
