Recovering

I made it through surgery and well; it hurts. The surgery went well apparently from what Corrie heard from the doctor. I spent more time in recovery since they expected the surgery to go longer and the spinal did not wear off. I am more mobile now then I was after my shoulder surgery(go figure). The pain was so immense the first day that I could not take it and called the on call doctor. He told me I could take ibuprofen which the nurses in post op said I could not. I called in the next morning and got a different painkiller. While it did not take all of it away at least I could sleep a couple hours at a time and not feel like my foot was on fire.
