I know you know this, but if you don't need surgery, don't do it. Turns out everything with me is A-okay. Which is good. And we wouldn't know this unless I had the surgery.

What is not good is that I don't remember being this out of it after my last surgery last summer. My throat hates me, even more than the little incisions. And I want to faceplant somewhere, but restless and my throat too uncomfortable to actually do so.

In short, any SPN or N3 squee will have to wait.

Blech.

Thank you, hon. Tea is delightful on the throat. And I slept really well last night, considering, so I'm feeling a bit more like myself. I might give you a call today. If I catch you at a bad time, no worries. We'll catch up with each other eventually.

Aw. I hope you can at least watch N3 if you are up that late. Do whatever you can, and rest, my friend.

Nope. No N3 for me last night. I was just too wiped out, and my eyesight hadn't recovered from the anesthesia. Plus I discovered that getting up from the couch was too much of a challenge to want to sit down on the couch. Heh.

But I'm feeling better this morning. Slept through the night (yay!), and the throat, which still uncomfortable, is at least letting me swallow this morning. So yay there, too.

Still waiting for my eyesight to completely clear. Or maybe just wake up. At least I can see my 'puter, though. :-)

Oh! And a nice side effect . . . the anti-inflammatory they had in my IV has actually helped calm down my skin problems. (I'd been hoping for an antibiotic for that reason, but my dermatologist would have given me an anti-inflammatory, too, so that is for yay!)

Is it weird that I went into this surgery hoping for a side effect that would improve a different problem?

Thank you! The good thing I kept hearing over and over yesterday was how healthy I am and how well I was coming out of the anesthesia and everything. And my nurses were very nice, and I really like my doctor. The general blechiness is annoying, but I'm feeling much better this morning.

*hugs*

Good to hear! It'll all be just a memory in another day or so.

Thank you! *hugs*

I'm feeling much better this morning. I slept well last night, and this morning my throat will actually let me swallow. And my eyesight seems to be returning to normal after being a little out of whack last night.

And of course there's always the first-hand experience to be used in fic, right? Heh. Or am I just weird like that?

I'm so glad you're ok.

*hugs* Thank you so much, hon.

I'm feeling much better this morning, to the point where I want to do things I know I shouldn't. You know? :-) I can swallow this morning (yay!) and my eyesight seems to be back on-line, which is also for yay.

Thank you so much. I appreciate hearing from you.

It is good news. I kept hearing yesterday about how healthy I am. Which is very good. It just doesn't really answer the questions that this surgery was hopefully going to answer.

I know I'm being kind of nondescript about all of this, but I don't want to inflict the details on everyone. Otoh, I'm wondering if my experiences wouldn't be of help to someone else who might have to go through the same thing.

But yes, the doctor said everything is just like it should be, which is why the surgery didn't take very long. And I'm feeling much better this morning. Better, I'm sure, than if they'd had to do more.

It's totally ok with being non descriptive about that. It's your right to let us know and how to let us know.
But just hear that you healthy - it must be good sign :) Just in case my fingers crossed :)

Sometimes, surgery is the only way to know there is nothing wrong. I'm glad all is well and hope you feel better soon.

Indeed. That's exactly why my doctor and I decided this was the next step. I'll be eager to talk to him at my post-op appointment to discuss where we go from here.

Thanks so much for the prayers and well wishes. And yes, I'm feeling much better this morning.

**hugs back** Thank you.

Thank you. I'm feeling much better this morning already. To the point where I want to do some things that I know I probably shouldn't. So, yes, today is going to be a kick back and relax day.

*hugs* Thank you, hon!

I hope you're feeling better yourself. Have you seen a doctor yet? Has your ickiness been a persistent thing? You've got lots of neat stuff going on that's going to take energy! Enjoy it! Feel better! *hugs you!*
