Done!...
Had phase one of surgery yesterday and they removed the plates and screws from my knee. I will link a pic if your interested.
it took from 10am (I arrived at 9am) to 2:45pm to do it (there was a wall clock directly across from my post-op stall), they put me under (as expected) but also used something that blocked my whole leg from hip to toes that left literally no feeling. Its been like that for the whole day and night and as I write this (at 530am) it finally cleared up for the most part and it freaking HURTS!.
friends/ co-worker that offered to drive me bailed when it turned out someone had stay with me after so I ended up hiring from comfort keepers (homecare service) to drive me home and hang with me.
two weeks of no phentermine, motrin, vitamins or anything that might cause bleeding,yes normally they want a week off stuff but this was too important for me to risk another cancellation.
I have some hydrocodone from the cancelled Achilles tendon surgery they said I can use (so I am).
no weigh-in for the journal, maybe later...
