All has gone well I used a walker on day crutches the first half of day two and have been on a cane ever since, the pain is suprisingly not bad compared to the way I was pre op. The first day I stilll had a port in my arm and my nurse would come in every 2 hours w/ 6 milagrams of morphine straight to thae head and a couple of percs, since yesterday after noon they backed me down to 2 percs every 2 hours (still doin the trick), The down fall of all of these opiods as you can imagine is I am hh hh hh hh a little backed up so I might need a little proceedure later to get things moving along properly. Should be back to work in three weeks or so and If all goes well back on my sticks for som slushy spring turns, I must say Med Technology is TEH_SWEET
