To the OP: thank you for sharing your story with us. I will pray that you recover every day and one day will look back on this as a distant memory.

It is such a warning to those who don't take the surgery seriously hopefully your post will sink into those who think this surgery is like getting a tooth pulled; it sure isn't.

May God Bless you and watch over you during this trying time.
