First 24 hours _sucked_. Lots. My body was _VERY NOT HAPPY WITH ME_ for the rude invasiveness of Friday plus anesthetic. No stamina whatsoever. And no ability to not be _fucking freezing_. Also, took an extra hour and a half or so to get out of recovery because the first time they tried to have the bed I was on sit me up a bit meant I went completely white, my blood pressure dropped alarmingly, and they laid me back down with oxygen and more IV fluids for a while. (I got _very_ tired, so was not shocked that they said I went white)
Then I was unable to get warm for the entire rest of the day; at most I managed to not be freezing cold. Was very odd. There was a very helpful![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
randysmith who brought me home from the hospital and kept me company and got me my meds and didn't complain too much about the fact that it was _really hot_ in my apartment and yet I was cold and under billions of layers. Then there was a chaiya to keep me company and entertain and take care of and feed me. Then there was an ayalanya to keep me company and entertain and take care of me. There was much lack of knowledge of what to expect from that first 24 hours from the hospital. Bad them!
Second 24 hours was much better than the first, but was still very clearly deficient. Lots of napping. Lots of being annoyed by boredom and needing to nap. Also, I had to use my arms _way_ too much those first 48 hours, because abdominal use caused pain and bleeding. So sad arms/wrists. Had visiting fromgalaneia and metahacker for much of that afternoon and evening, and was thus entertained and snuggled much. Also, I learned that laughing hurt. And that my short-term memory was deficient. Also, I learned that I had very little ability to follow phone conversations (of which there were three that day).
Sunday was mostly ok; pain, yes, but stopped bleeding and could use abdominal muscles more. Bored, though! On the plus side, there was a lending of "A bit of Fry and Laurie" fromgalaneia to watch, and laughing no longer hurt. This greatly reduced boredom and wrist use. Wrists are not entirely happy with me today (or yesterday), though.
