Hey every one, I am safe and sound on the other side! Surgery was on saturday, and the experience at the hospital was wonderful! all things considered. Its good that I can actually make such a comment about a hospital in a developing country. The care was first rate, the staff were caring and frinedly. My doctor and the anastesiologist were great. At my pre opt, my husband realised that he knew the anastheisologist from university in Jamacia, so i got extra special care (yippy!) I am home now and the most challenging thing since I got home was climing the 13 stairs to my room. But with the help of my husband I got up and I am am back down this morning.
I had a spinal and genral anasthesia for surgery, felt nothing and my post op pain was managed with a morphine pump (oh god i love that pump). Po opt there was no nausea, just the itch associated with the narcotics. I feel like a cocaine addict itching all over. I am grateful that all went well and hope that all the July sparklers are doing ok. I started pt on mondaymorning and have been doing well so far. I am so grateful to the forum for helping me prepare for this surgery. Sincerley, Titac. LTHR July 14, 2012
