Well I did it. I had surgery on my hemorrhoids Monday. They didn't do a spinal block...just sedation and local anesthetic. They kept me for observation overnight and I came home Tuesday afternoon. All was good until I came home. I got nauseated on the way home so I ate some soup and took a phenagran. I went to bed at 4 and it was a rough evening and night. I was sick to my stomach and sweated my rear off all night. I really wanted to die and should've called 911 to go back to the hospital. Should've stayed an extra day. I rested all day Wednesday but was up in my chair all day Thursday and Friday. Still taking pain meds but went 9 hours yesterday in between doses.
The surgeon said not to do bowel program for at least a week...I feel like a fat cow. Taking Miralax and praying I'll go when I'm on my shower chair. On a lighter note and something only quads can appreciate..I've passed gas w/out bending over or pushing on my rear..it was a joyful noise...lol I guess there's no roadblocks anymore J now if I can just go to the bathroom!
