We were told to arrive at the hospital at 7am Monday, June 13. Of course since we were all nervous we ended up getting there at 6:30 am. About 7 I was taken to the prep area and waited and waited and waited and waited. Every so often someone would come in; a nurse to cleanse the are, put the stockings for circulation on, put in the IV, anesthesiologist came, and my orthopedic. Finally about 10:30-11 the nurse antithesis came in as well as second nurse to take me to surgery. They gave me a liquid in the IV that immediately knocked me out. That was a weird feeling. I don't remember anything else until I woke up fully in the recovery room.
Not knowing how I would do with anesthesia, they were prepared with anti nausea medicine. Turns out, I needed it.
Now I am at home resting, sleeping off and on.
