Surgery Day - Part Two
Surgery was successful! No problems with my sugar! The OR nurse LOVED my CGM. Well worth it!
I was up and going home before 1155am! Got home at 1230pm! No complications, less bleeding than the other surgery which was less bleeding than normal. Thats pretty good! Dr. Limb liked how the procedure went and was pleased with the results. He's excited for me for my activation!
I woke up with NO pain at all! I was such a happy camper! Will do a posting on comparison from both surgeries. And was able to walk to my second phase of recovery! From waking up and getting over there was about 15-20 minutes apart. When I woke up, i immediately saw the nurse and asked for a drink and crackers. I was smiling away cuz I was pretty numb this time. Really nice nurse.
One bad thing... I got stuck 3 TIMES for a IV!!!!! This pre-op nurse must have been new and was not experienced in doing IVs. But I asked for my old pre-op nurse, Victoria. She didn't come in til later but she was able to get in a nice line for me and was happy to see her again.
Had the same anesthesiologist! It was a small world! She was glad to see me again! She was like number two already? I was like up, lets get the show on the road!
Didn't even say bye to my parents.. only my fiancee. I was put under about 10 seconds. This was so much smoother than the last time. Had a good surgical experience.
