I guess because of the circumstances of the revision. It shouldn't have happened. They rarely do paddle revisions ESP <90 days since original surgery. My back hurts. A lot. Ice helps, but I have spread there so now I'm wondering do I even use it? Ugh, rsd- really sucks. Sorry, I usually don't speak like that but I'm just wondering why things keep getting worse instead of better.
Arrrrrgggghhhhh....I have been crying a lot. Can you tell?

good news on the fever...keep checking for flare ups. So true about working till surgery date...I had to do that a few times. The stronger you go in the stronger you come out so take that into consideration.
just a thought here...try to sit up and get some semi deep breaths...could be the anestesia still woking it's way out of you causing what may feel like depression.
Be gentle on yourself...cry all you want...hydrate..
