yup, i’ll be up and at em pretty soon
feels a lot better than when i got it in.
little nauseous, pain meds are ok but still in a lot of pain
This may sound cruel, but don't lean on the pain meds to much, bare as much as you can, you don't want to travel down the road of medicine dependency, if that makes any sense. I'm arguing with my new doctors about just how much I actually have to take. And I will leave it at that so not to turn this thread into some big debate that's way off topic.

@The_Tigg, for once I'm going to be serious with a response to what you post. You are exactly, 100% correct. I faced that same issue when I had back surgery over 10 years ago. It didn't take long with the Lortab they prescribed for me to understand just how easy it would have been to get "hooked". @Andle, just use your head and take as much of the pain as you can stand.... it'll be worth it in the long run.

100% guys, for my first surgery they had me on oxi but i was only on that for 2 days before i went to the lighter stuff. I can’t remember how that was cause that surgery was a lot more painful than this one. This time the hardest stuff they sent me home with is tramminal… I’ve elected not to take it unless I’m really feeling in pain, so far it’s just been ibuprofen and tylenol
I’ve also heard trammenal messes with your reaction time, i don’t like the idea of being a touch slow (especially when sim racing is one of my hobbies)
so yeah, doing a lot better this morning, still a lot of pain around the incisions

Not cruel but great advice @The_Tigg Dan. The drugs can take you down a cruel path. Way too many people are given too much of that kind of crap without care taken that they won't get hooked or have other problems from it. I feel the same, I do not take those meds unless really necessary.
@Andle you seem to have a good head on your shoulders and good sense. Just keep using it well. :)
You get feeling better and well soon too!

Again,
Best to all you Guys!

Ya but that's a predictable rise for a reason, not an unknown...but as you say

You must show up on the grid Q or not...
