Day of Surgery stories

I would really love to hear how everyone's day of surgery went! I am having mine on March 26th. I am nervuos, excited, scared and everything in between. How did you feel when you woke up? I will be in the hospital from Tuesday-Friday, will be able to take a shower during that time? Will they give me pain meds right after surgery? How did you feel after 1 week? 2 weeks? I would love to hear about everyone's journey.
