Hey everyone.... I am home and feeling really good!!  Went into surery at 9:15 and was out at around 11 am.  I had a hernia repair while I was there.  Tuesday after surgery I wasn't in pain as much as much as I just felt like crap.  I think someone was in my room ever fifteen minutes that first night.  Wednesday I had to hit my pain pump a good bit.  By that evening it was all good.  Thursday morning I was doing really good.  I walked a lot and was less sleepy and could form sentences.  I did not have to use the pain pump at all and was really feeling good about that.  It felt good to be AWAKE.... Then I got up to use the restroom..... my sweet, loving husband was so good to me.  He said "hold on babe let me help you with the IV pole".. then I heard him say "OOPPS".... I was like..... What... What are you OOPPS ing about??  He looked at me all sheepish and said " I accidentally hit your pain button".... so far about 4 or 5 hours before I was released I could hardly keep my eyes open.  I was released Thursday evening and then we had to drive the 2 hours home.  I don't remember any of that because I slept like a baby. 
The only pain I have now is some of my incisions have a burning feeling sometimes and my back, neck and shoulders are killing me from laying in that Hospital bed and then I slept in my recliner last night.  Other than that I am Fantastic!!

Hey CindyLyn 

Welcome home.  Im so happy to hear you are doing well.  Those pain killers must be the best lol because it seem like you didnt have much pain.  Get lots of rest and I hope you have a speedy recovery.
