Hi Debra,
I felt awful for about 10 days after surgery.
I had mine done as an outpatient, and I had 8 prescriptions I had to fill before surgery. Four of them were painkillers, including oxycodone. If most people didn’t need them, there’s no way I would have had all those prescriptions.
Hang in there. I’m 6 weeks post surgery now, and I feel much, much better.
