Well the deed is done.
Last tuesday I had my SRS with Dr. Christine McGinn in Philadelphia. I don't remember anything about the surgery, but everything else is still in my memory.
The first days were filled back pain. The 3rd day filled with constipation and gas pain. The 4th day filled with the opposite of constipation ( go figure, eh?) and the fifth day started to level out as I was discharged.
So here I sit in a hotel in Philadelphia, confined to positions consisting of laying on my back and tail bone with my legs shoulder's with apart. Yes I'm sore, tired, weak, exhausted, helpless, and mobily impaired, but I am happy. Everyday is a step forward. Its a long road of recovery, but I will get through it. I have to. Thats who I am.
Hope all is well with everyone.
Will try to keep you updated with my progress.
Take care.
