) They removed the epidural two days ago, now he's taking Percoset (sorry sp?). He's shakey on his feet, a walk to the bathroom tires him out. Other than that he feels pretty good if he's just sitting around, it's when he's got to move that there's a problem..oh well, that's what the pain killers are for I guess!

Thought I'd update with some GOOD news..Bob's home!
He's exhausted..and feeling the pain a bit. He'll nod off while you're talking to him. Wait..he did that before the surgery too (just kidding..
Just figured I'd keep you guys updated...been crazy busy, catching up with housework, laundry, grocery shopping and taking care of the hubby. I sure am happy to have some ordinary things to think about.
) I figured insurance is paying for it..why not take advantage and see what help they can offer. It's another set of eyes that knows what they're looking at...as far as his incision, and that type of thing. PT said they'd be back probably twice a week, for at least a couple of weeks. They left a set of exercises for him to do. They were reassuring as to his feeling as tired as he does..but it's normal at this point.
I mean..I had to wait for the ground to thaw anyway.
