5 days Post-Op :)

I'm on the "other side" as they say...

Monday was surgery, not a day to have much to speak of other then pain :(
Sorry if that scares anyone but... it's just a fact and part of the process.
Late Monday into the night and Tuesday Morning once they switch the pain meds, it was a bit better and I was able to get up and start "cruising" the halls etc.  Also keep in mind it's noted that while in there doing the Bypass, they had to remove/repair many adhesions from my previous Gall Bladder Surgery from 20+ years ago.

Tuesday was better, I was released to come home.  Tuesday night at home was a bit more difficult, ended up moving from upstairs to downstairs with some success for some sleep :)

Wednesday again more slow improvement, figured out bed/sleep arrangements for the night so it was *much* better :)

Thursday, probably due to the decent sleep was much better.  I did attempt to warm up my son's breakfast.. that was an epic fail, by the end I was in pain, sweating Oiy... my older son was like... ahhh hello, isn't that why I'm here?  I was successful in washing my hair, went to a Dr appt.  I think I paid a bit for it later as my side was not happy :(

Friday is coming to a close, was uneventful I got to sleep in... probably too much!!  It felt good though :)
Feeling a lil bit of pressure, I think I'm swallowing too much at a time or such will work on that.

Shall see what the weekend brings :)
