Default Back Home....Whoopie!!!!

I am buzzing away 24/7. After three and a half days the battery is down one quarter. Does that sound normal? I am calling my rep tomorrow as she said not to touch the charger until my post op appt. and have no idea when that is. BTW, the rep who said she was my new best friend has not contacted me since the surgery about how the device and I were getting along. The hospital called the next day but not the rep. Hmmmmm. Not pleased. She has my number and the number where I was staying plus everyone's email addy.

I am still honked over the med situation. When I sat down and took a good look at my orders, the idiot actually wanted me on less medication than I was on when I entered the hospital. I am thrilled with the device but the incissions have been extremely painful and I am in a full Fibro flare now. This guy may be the bomb from a technical stand point but I wouldn't recomend him to anyone who had additional issues which so many of us do.

Based on previous experience, I think I am healing up on schedule. The incission pain is starting to quiet down, thankfully. I feel stronger. It's good to be home. I was ready for some privacy and I know my daughter was exhausted from keeping the kids and dogs from trying to climb all over me. I woke up this morning with a 125 lb pit bull on top of me. She had a fit when I called her to come get him. I thought it was rather funny. Later.
