I'm glad both of your surgeries went well- wish you both a speedy recovery! I'm doing a surgical rotation right now in school, so I've been in various different surgeries. Let me tell you, it makes a big difference what kind of surgeon/surgical team you have. Some doctors are experts, and will go out of the way to make sure the problem is fully taken care of. Others will cut corners.

On a side note- the interesting surgeries are the orthopedic surgeries. The surgeons often use large hammers, chisels, etc. to hack away & shape bone, or to pound large posts, pins, & screws in. Sounds like a carpenter's shop sometimes...

I knew that, but it still makes me cringe when you say it.

He's got me on two - hydrocodone being the primary. He also has metaking oxycodone for "breakthru" pain - man, that stuff will knock your socks offbut it does a hell of a job on pain.
