Hoping and praying that all went well today. Hopefully your recovery goes better than mine. Since my MVD I have had trouble swallowing food and have had considerable voice loss. Found out that I have a paralyzed left vocal chord. I have a follow up appointment next week and will go from there. I couldn't eat in the hospital following my surgery and could barely drink anything. I think this made my recovery much harder. It wasn't until the last day in the hospital that I was able to take any pills. The good thing is that I have felt no pain from GN or TN.

In a couple more days I will be completely off of my medication, which is just about as good as being pain free. I have been out of work since the end of June, but will return in two weeks.

Let us know how you are doing. Good luck!!
