I learned from your posts in fact to chill out because my dr basically said if I screw this up, he's not doing it again.

As far of coverage, its not bad! Luckily I am not also dealing with major pain flair up in addition to my surgery (someone is looking out for me and only giving me what I can handle!) so it's the surgical sites, swelling and uncomfortableness of trying to sit, stand and lie down. Ugh. Sleep! I've been sleeping in a recliner for 12 nights now because my bed is too hard and I can feel the battery pack and muscles move around when I lay on my sides. And, of course I still can't lay on my back.

I am stressing though because I fly out to Ft. lauderdale Texas on the 12th of this month alone for work and I'm worried about carrying my luggage and overdoing it. This has by far been the toughest recovery! They really played it down.
