Post-op Day #9

Well, I can't tell you how surprising this has been for me. Day of surgery, I woke up in my room in no pain or discomfort whatsoever and I felt good. I was discharged the next day by noon and did not have to go home with a urinary catheter!! I had been prepared by my MD that I may have to go home with one for about a week. What an answer to prayer!

I have been home for a week now and things have beeen going well with the recovery. I have a 4 week appointment on July 5th. I will be able to drive, starting sometime after my 2nd week, depending on if I can sit well enough. If all continues to go smoothly, I should be able to return to work and exercise by my 9th week post-op: August 8th.

All of the pain that I had been having over the past 2 yrs. that had slowly, but surely been getting worse, is GONE! So far I have not had any issues with mood swings or other hormone related issues but I will keep it posted. Praise be to God and all the prayers of the saints through this time. Thank you!
