  • Praise be to God and all.of.my wonderful.praying Glowbies. I am out of surgery and still in the land of the living. I just wanted you all to know. I am fortunate to have family and wonderful friends.able and willing to look after me. I can't help but wonder what others including van life folks and nomads who are boondocking and suddenly get sick and need treatment.as well as solo folks without family do. I also found out some rather troubling news about seniors and Medicare and Medicare Advantage programs You need to know and I am going to share with you. Take care.

    Please don't let your pain get out of control. It is so hard to play catch up to feel better. These medications are there to help you be able to get up and move so you can heal faster. Take it easy, but try to move as much as possible per doctors orders only. Follow the doctors plan and you should be just fine. So glad to see you in good spirits. Thank you for all you do to help everyone be aware of life things that can help us get through. Take care!

      They use different types of airway devices; basically all cause discomfort, some more than others.

    Yes, anytime they put you under with anesthesia they intubate you. It takes a while for your throat to get back to normal.
    Glad you’re doing OK

    Anesthesia suppresses breathing so intubation is necessary. Then if there's an emergency during the surgery you're already ventilated respiratory wise.

    Pain management is key to recovery! It stresses the body out to have the pain whilr it's trying to heal. Take the oxy for a day or two and then stop. You don't get addicted by taking a couple of tablets. I still don't know what the surgery was for but I will scroll through and find out I hope. So glad you are feeling better no matter what the cause of the surgery.

      You are so right. After 48 hours at home following major surgery ( I was in there 3 nights), I used acetaminophen/ ibuprofen/ what’s that other stuff otc?? Yes, taking turns with those, I needed the oxy at night 2 more evenings to get good sleep. After that I did fine with the over the counter pain meds.

    • @JBS1987

    • @rattlecat5968
      @rattlecat5968 3 місяці тому +3

      ​@@JBS1987Addiction is a choice...just like over eating. A few tablets for a couple of days is safe *AS LONG AS A PERSON CHOOSES TO STOP AFTER A FEW DAYS.*
      The people who like the high or are too fragile to deal with otherwise manageae pain are the people who addict themselves and cause problems for EVERYONE.

    Cepacol should help with your throat. Spray or lozenges. Your sore throat should be better in a day or two. Carol, take the pain meds. Unless you have a history or addiction it won’t be an issue. It’s easier to keep you out of pain than to get you out of pain! Maybe, at least take it at bedtime & use an over the counter stool softener with narcotics. Ok, I’m off my nurse soapbox now. Peace and hugs!
