Surgery went well — left anterior total hip. It was supposed to be same day surgery, but I spent one night in the hospital, due to my late arrival on the surgical floor, nausea and difficulty immediately post-op getting my pain controlled. Who knew that fentanyl did nothing for me? Also, I received general anesthesia — my surgeon likes to do nerve conduction tests while operating to be sure no nerve damage has occurred.
Pain at home is easily controlled with oxycodone 5mg about four times a day. Biggest problem is ‘log’ leg and getting it back on the couch after a stroll behind my walker. Amazon should be delivering a leg lifter to help with that tomorrow.
Such a relief to be on the healing side!
