It’s been a weird couple of weeks but plenty to be thankful for and even more to be excited about.

About two weeks ago, John and I went up to Cincinnati for my hysteroscopy and polypectomy.  I was completely knocked out during the surgery, which made me realize the reasoning behind anyone being a drug addict since my mind was having so much fun when I was awake but all loopy. The surgery was a great success.. I have the before and after photos of my uterus which I haven’t convinced myself {yet!} to post them on here, but they sure are fascinating! It’s safe to say I could be in the running for the most beautiful, smoothest and most improved uterus on this side’a Mississippi.

The aftermath of the surgery went like this… woke up from anesthesia, had some pain medication added to my IV, realized I was allergic to said pain medication, had some benadryl added to my IV and I don’t even remember my lovely nurse leaving the room after that point. It was splendid.

After an incredible nap, John and I packed up and headed home. He made a nice palette for me in the back seat where I snoozed for the hour and half drive and then did a swan dive into bed for the rest of the day. Once all the IV pain meds wore off, I took a few vicodin since I was still in enough pain to bother me quite a bit. I was so surprised about how sore my legs were afterwards and very glad I was not awake for any of it. Sorry if that was TMI, but I’m keepin’ it real. I went to work the next day, and took a half day the day after that because my body wasn’t finished resting.

This week’s milestone to look forward to is Thursday’s post op appointment and Education Day to learn the in’s and out’s of IVF which will hopefully not be postponed anymore. Fingers crossed!  Sorry for the short update, but I’m working on plenty of other posts to tide me over since there’s not too much to report on as of now.
