My surgery went pretty well. I had a hard time with my throats hurting after they too the tube out in recovery.
I don't tend to do well with anesthesia because I am very sensitive to it so I was really loopy and emotional after I woke up. I was gagging on the dryness of my throats and was only able to communicate a little to the nurses in that state.
I stayed there a little longer before coming back to my room. I spent the next hour coughing and coughing before I asked "agua pocito, no traga, dolor gargantas" (little Water no swallow, throats pain)
For those of you who do not speak Spanish, the nurses I had were wonderful and patient and knew some English. My advice is know the basics for what you'll need and either write them down or commit to memory.

In the US my profession is a nurse and I do have allergies so I also asked "medicina nombre" (name of medicine) a lot.

My Spanish is broken at best but they were kind and patient with me.

I used the google translate app a lot and made sure to update the offline settings for Spanish before I went.

I've been up a few times walking from my bed to the bathroom which about 12-15' away without problem of assistance since I got back from recovery. From coughing a lot I've made my stomach muscled sore but they're tolerable. The drain is the most tender. I have three incisions.

All of my Fluid intake yesterday was done via IV. Today I start orally.

I've only been able to sleep for about 90m at a time because the heat and humidity are not my friends and if there is AC here I don't know how to operate it and nobody has volunteered that information. When my translator comes in this morning that's the first thing I'll ask.

I've seen a few people walking halls and my doctor has checked on patients in the rooms on either side of me so maybe some of y'all are down here and if so, I truly and sincerely wish you the best of luck in your recovery processes.

Excuse my typos please. I forgot to mention that they gave me an injection of pain meds last night for gas and it really blurred by vision like you'd expect after having your eyes dilated. I'm back to normal but don't have my contacts in yet.
I hope everyone has a productive day in their stage of progress.
