    Congratulations! How exciting for you! Good luck with your surgery, follow what the doctor tells you, sip and walk a lot, and you will do fine!

    YOU WILL BE JUST FINE AND SO GLAD YOU HAD THIS SURGERY.

    You will be very surprised at the short recovery time and what little pain you are in after you come home. Although my Dr. sent me home with a prescription for pain, one for nausea and one for cramps, I only used the pain pill a couple of times. Had my surgery on 2/5, released from hospital on 2/7 and was back at work on 2/10/14. I could do this as I'm a Nanny and they were very aware of any limitations, specifically lifting. The 5-year old in school all day and the 3-year old very easy-going, takes a 2 1/2 hour nap daily. If I had a different job I would not have gone back this soon. I see my surgeon tomorrow (2/20) for my post-surgery appointment.
