Haven't even used any of th...

Re: 48 hours and counting
So apparently the surgery took about 6 hours to complete. Had to carve out scar tissue and also needed to use grafting material in order to get everything in. Staying an extra night in the hospital to make sure everything is ok and to keep me on IV antibiotics. Very little pain so far. Drain and cat...
