Can't write much, but wanted to let everyone know that i'm back from the hosptial after my laproscopic gall bladder removal surgery yesterday. Not in too much pain, just an annoying wavering pain in my right shoulder muscle. The docs say it's from releasing gas (CO2 from the surgery, not intestinal gas), but i'm not sure anymore. Seems the gas bubbles would have been worked out by now. Anyhow, keep it treated with a hand-held massager and a heating pad. All in all, that's not too bad.
I remember absolutely nothing about the surgery. Kudos to the needle-doctors. Though the writer in me would really like to have had a conscious experience to tell about. The last thing i remember was being asked what color cap i wanted (though i had to be reminded afterwards about even that much), and how i warned the nurses that they better pick the right color (Duke blue, not Carolina blue). Shades of Reagan and his quip: "I hope you're all Republicans." After the cap caper, my next memory was of the rough jostle transferring me off the surgery gurney to the post-op recovery bed.
