Carpal Tunnel Surgery Today (Saturday)
Jun. 6th, 2008 11:50 pmGoing in for carpal tunnel surgery this morning, so it might be a few days before you hear from me.
Surgery is at noon; I have to wake up a little before 6 am to take my meds and drink my last drink until I get out of surgery. (I plan on going right back to sleep, but if I post at 7am you'll know what happened. ) I've been picking up and cleaning up, since I will be one-handed for a few days. It should be interesting, at least! I have Monday off from work, but my boss seems to be easy with me taking another day if I need it. Hopefully, I won't.
I get the bandages/splint off on Monday morning, and my first PT. I really hope I'll feel like working out that day, since I'm making a real effort not to let anything throw me off track this time. Just a couple of weeks of 3-4 days a week is working wonders on my blood pressure!
Doctor says I can take in my iPod, so just in case I loaded the last 4 eps of Torchwood on it. We'll see, I may be too spacy from whatever they give me in the OR, but at least I can listen to my choice of music. Any suggestions as to genre?
