All I can say is I'm glad it's over!!! But now the really work begins. Sore but not in real pain rate it a 3 on pain scale. Please keep up the schedule with your pain meds! I had the beat doctor ever ( dr bagnato from Albany, ga) his staff was wonderful and he made sure I was comfortable. The actually surgery was 45 minutes. I arrived at 8 and was home by 3!! I have to share a secret.. I ask could I have Valium before the procedure and it was a lifesaver. I was so anxious last nite and it helped me get a good night rest and this am I was well rested and calm. My only complaint was I am a hard stick and I was stuck 11 times before I got a IV but also I had took a Valium this am and I was ready for the world!! Just trying to get comfy for tonite but I believe this was one of the best choices I ever made!!
