where di you have surgery? How did it happen so fast? Usually it takes months of appointments and test to make sure you are a good canidate for the procedure.....

I'm glad you are home safe... sip walk rest repeat! the pain is pretty normal unless it gets to be a stabbing pain... then call your doc.
