Updates Again

I'm home from the hospital and feeling much stronger on this summer day, although I am stuck inside with my silly bandages. The hospital stay was horrific yet again, but at least it was shorter than the last one! Have to look at the upsides of things here...

I seemed to have had a bad reaction to the epidural and morphine. Dare we say "allergic." I was zonked out and throwing up the whole time. Gross.

But, the upside of it all is that I bounce back fast :-) and that McDreamy found an actual physical deformity of my nerve when he opened me up higher than the last time. My nerve was wrapped around a ligament and other crazy things rather than traveling down my leg and foot like a normal little nerve should. He fixed that up, and my parents said he looked like a giddy school boy telling them what he found. It's always great news when the surgeon is happy :-)

Please visualize me healthy and off these crutches soon minus RSD! Thanks for all the support!
