B.A.C.K. to Basics

Done!

One Hysterectomy in the books!

Started the day very early, arrival at 6 am with surgery around 7:45. To PACU at 10 and up to my room around 11:30. From there it was a long day trying to kick the anesthesia out of my system. I’m hard with that and even the anesthesiologist confirmed when he came to check on me. I don’t “wake up” easily.

From there it was discharging protocols that needed to be met. That was tougher than I expected. Drink, sure no problem my throat was like sandpaper from the gas and oxygen. Walk ??? Hmm that one took a bit longer as I felt nauseous. Pee? Again, little longer with that one. And lastly, eat. I just wasn’t hungry.

Long day. Came home around 7. Hoping for an ok night sleep tonight but happy it’s over (and out)!
