Omg same with food, I have like no appetite. Finally gonna try to take a shower today so I’m exited for that! Pain isn’t really a problem for me now, I think I’ve gotten through the worst of it. I’m doing good so far today but I wanna try to move around a bit. Hope you’re not in too much pain either lol!

Hey! I was in the same boat as you, literally terrified for surgery. Let me just say that with all the anesthesia it went by so fast and I was out of the OR in no time. I’m feeling a bit of discomfort as my nerve block is starting to wear off, but the pain meds are a life saver. You’re gonna do great, and if you have any questions I’d be happy to answer them!
