      Hi all, I survived my surgery!! This is the first chance I've had to get online since my procedure. All in all, not too bad! The pain was less than I expected and is so far very manageable...I'm sure

The pain was less than I expected and is so far very manageable...I'm sure the pain meds have something to do with that. I have been pretty nauseous so far today. I'm hoping it's short lived. Just happy to have made it through and I'm excited for the future!

    Devon, I hope your surgery went well too. Best of luck in the days ahead!

    Surgery went well. They removed my gallbladder and repaired a hiatal hernia. I'm a little sore, having trouble sleeping all night - and seam to have lots of gurgling everytime I sip! All in all - I'm well.

    Devon, so happy to hear that you are doing well. You had a lot of work done so you will be sore. I hope you are up and moving and feeling better very quickly ;)
