How Did You Feel After Surgery

I got approved in a day. I have to get the surgery done before the end of the month. I'm scheduled on the 31st, the same darn day my daughter continuates:(. Wondering how did you feel the day of? My doc is saying I'll be a little sore but should feel fine to sit through a 1hour program later that night. I'm excited but feel overwhelmed at the same time.

I ended up staying overnight and I slept slept slept... SOOOOOOOOOOO I don't think I could have sat through anything......Slept through a lot of the next day might have been pain meds but I was in pjs for 5 days..Good Luck

Remembering back, that day I was pretty out of it. My surgery was first thing in the morning and I was home by noon. I slept most of the afternoon, up around dinner time. Of course I couldn't eat, and had some pain from the surgery. But I didn't have an important event to go to either....for something like that I probably would have made it through! (fyi if that's anything like a graduation it will be much longer than an hour!). Hope you can coordinate everything!

I was rather out of it the evening of my surgery. I wasn't really in pain, but I just wanted to sleep. I was up and around a little bit more the next day, but I really took it easy for about 5 days.

I was miserable the day of and in pain. I can't imagine having to go somewhere afterwards to sit. Plus I still kind of felt out of from the anesthesia.

Yeah, that's what I thought. My husband may have to fill in.

Once I got home my mom stayed with me for a few hours and I think I stayed up during most of that time, but after she left I was in and out of sleep for til the next morning.

I wasn't in real pain after surgery, just achy. I was also really sleepy from the drugs, but could have sat for an hour if necessary.

Tired sleepy nasuea...I don't know if i could stand to stay awake for an hour.
