Day After...

[demonakitty]

So, I'm home from the hospital. i actually got home last night. Dr. Florack told Nick (probably becuase I was too out of it) that there was no other damage to my knee. The reason I was in so much pain is because the cyst went all the way down to the nerve. SO it would change size and hit it...again....and again...etc. You get the idea. I no longer have the super spiffy drugs in my system so I hurt. a lot. I just took two vicodin. It makes me nauseus but if it helps the pain then i'm happy. I'd like to at least be able to start my PT exercises. I'm a bit weak because i'm not eating enough - see nausea - but Nick's been amazing with helping me up to go to the bathroom and making me drinkies and food. yay. the whole experience was a little scary, but Bruce (the nurse antesthetist (sp?)) was AMAZING with the IV. I woke up with terrible shakes but apparently that's normal for some people coming out of surgery. they gave me some demerol to calm it down. Ok, i don't feel so good. i'm going to go away, but i'm alive.

Special uber-thanks to all of my super supportive friends. :-)
