First day post surgery

This was a tough day. Had no catheter so I had to get up all night to void. Pain was not to bad with pump. I did without pain meds from 6am -2pm and then gave in. Taken several laps around hospital floor with IV pole as a cane. I think I have 2 incisions with dermabond and one JP drain. Could not stand the dirty hair. Washed it in the sink at about 4. Made my JP site bleed but not so bad. Very tired and not looking forward to the 3 hour drive home. Passed my leak tests so I was given clear liquids. Could not take much of that. Jello was ok. Isopure was ok but only little sips of it. Jello is now 6 hours old and not even half is gone.
