Update from Dr. after surgery

Well this morning I went to the Dr's for a follow up and he was pleased at how well I am healing up, he said that I can now soak in the tub or shower to get all the stuff to clear up, he said now I can go back to my regular rowtine and I get to drive again lol I hate being the passenger in the truck lol, well I also told the Dr that I am a fast healer too and he said yeah I can see that the Dr has such good bed side manners and a funny guy. Thnaks again for everyone wished me well and told Mike for me get well soon too we both enjoyed it from all of yous.

If you have pain don't hesitate to take your meds. I found that I recovered faster being on the meds so that the pain was deadened and I would move around. It is the moving around that helps you heal. At least that is what they told me with my surgery. I am pretty much recovered from my surgery and just dealing with the tiredness from my radiation treatment. The nausea is still there, but is much less than the first week of my treatment.
