So glad it went well and the pain is manageable. Let us know how things are progressing!

My surgery went really well, how is everyone who had surgery feeling?

Doing well! I haven't posted since well before surgery, just been plugging away at life! 12 days post-op, I'm feeling great. Haven't taken pain meds since day 2, I struggled hard with the anesthesia which kept me nauseous for a solid 48 hours. Once that was out of my system things were looking up.

How are you feeling now?

I had surgery on March 8th. Thankfully mine was a breeze. I haven't even taken Tylenol since being discharged from the hospital. I had a tonsillectomy in college and I was in absolute agony, so I was nervous. Thankfully this was a much easier experience.

Now if only I could drink a protein shake without gagging, life would be great..... (I did not have issues with them pre-op. Post-op, I cannot do it. Switched brands, no better.)

Maybe try a protein water?
