Well surgery is done and went much smoother than I expected. The procedure ended up being less invasive then they originally planned and that made recovery much shorter than I anticipated. I've been out of the hospital for a month now and everything has more or less gone back to normal.
I'm still getting pain from the procedure but that is to be expected until I'm fully healed in another couple months. For now it's just a matter of taking things one day at a time and not pushing myself past my tolerance level...which I've never been good at. I've always plowed threw the pain with an "I can do it" attitude and while it always works for the time being...the aftershock is always crippling.
I'm working threw one of those aftershocks tonight. I spent the last three days going non-stop and now I feel like my body weighs a 1000 lbs and just moving is a huge effort. It's definitely time for some R&R. I really need to learn to balance things a little better next time so I don't get this bad.
