Default What was your stay in the hospital like? (surgery)

Hi everyone...

I am sitting here bored out of my mind feeling crappy as usual. This weather sure isn't helping! I had to take my daughter to a Dr appt this morning and my neck was on FIRE! I'm wondering..am I gonna die of boredom or pain? Or both at the same time

I'm getting ready to have surgery...feeling a bit nervous. Those of you who have had surgery....what was it like when you woke up? How long were you in the recovery room? Did you have a drainage tube? I was told I'd have one until the next day. What were you given for pain? How many days were you in the hospital.

I'd like to here some of your stories so I can get an idea on what to expect. I still have no idea what I'll get for the pain (med wise) since I'm allergic to EVERYTHING!

Talk to ya soon...

Momz
