Be forewarned: the account is just as long and boring as it was to be going through it. It's no fun at all, and the NG tube is very painful on your throat and nose. I did not want to have company, but my dear husband hung in there with me and came for long, long hours each day (aside from the first).
Today I'm 3 weeks post-op and doing pretty good, I think. I have twinges and little pains, but I'm assuming those are all normal.
Take care, all. Let's pray pain-free days are ahead for all. wr
