3 days post surgery

May 02, 2012

 I came home from Hospital yesterday. The ride home was interesting. The discharge nurse gave me a pillow to put between my stomach and the seat belt. I sure am glad she did that; I now know how many pot holes and breaks in pavement there are between Hospital and home. That pillow saved me a lot of pain.

So here I am 3 days post op. I am trying to get back to a normal routine as quickly as possible. I have showered, shaved, had breakfast (1 oz of plain yogurt) and all of my meds (crushed pills taste nasty.). Oh yea, meds now include a self-administered blood-thinner shot for the next 14 days and pain pills.

It is so weird to not be hungry. Normally by this time I've had a big breakfast and am into my second large decaf from Starbucks. I say again; it is weird not being hungry.

Time for a morning walk! More later.
