Hi to all,
I continue to move at my usual pace....faster than a crawl, slower than a shuffle. A t1 week post-op, today was the day that I actually felt somewhat unbalanced. I am okay in the morning, and then slow down at lunch ..and down, down down! I am actually trying really hard to get weaned off drugs. I came home w/only Tylenol 3 and a stool softener, but the Tylenol 3 just makes me feel stupid and slow. Maybe stoned. Never tried that, but that might be a good description. Haven't had a killer headache in a couple of days, and find that Excedrin works pretty well. I do think I could use something to help me sleep at night, though. I'm having a hard time sleeping. And I have little bits of music literally stuck in my head, and hear it faintly from time to time, like the little musical sign off from an old radio show. My family is highly amused by that one, and keep asking what stations I'm picking up. Don't know what to say!

Yesterday I was a little weepy. I think the euphoria of getting it over with, and the adrenalin feeling of "Woo, Hoo!" wore off, and I was left with the reality of an 60 yr. old body trying to make a comeback from something bigger than it had ever dealt with before. I have been very low key today, and am taking baby steps, as directed by all you veterans out there! I am also dealing with the emotion and gratitude of a swifter than most recovery, and am feeling very humbled by the very large blessing that I was given.
Food still has no real appeal, but I eat enough to keep my daughter happy. She has given up most of her Christmas break to stay with me, and I want her to fell like she is accomplishing something
