glad to hear of your successful surgery. It should have been pain-free though. It's not neccessary to "grin and bear it"!! Tell your surgeon if you are feeling any pain.

Your honeymoon period usually lasts 3-4 days, and then your PD comes back with a vengance. Not to worry though, once you aree "up and running" you will feel as good as you do now.
