Surgery done.
A groin hernia operation yesterday for me.
Bloody sore or what?
I offered the surgeon my best rabbit knife but to my surprise he turned it down!
The recovery ward was hell! An old guy from Manchester with wit dryer than the Sahara had us in stitches or rather undoing stitches!
More mobile today and just contemplating a short walk with 410!
Yesterday Jess got an early walk, I knew it was going to be a long day for her too. The Baikal single amused her with a couple of squirrels.
Talking of Jess, she went straight to the area of surgery on my return! They know more than we think!
A photo.
Here is some snaps from last week.
Look after yer selves this winter.
Don't do christmas but that don't mean I don't wish you all a good holiday and I also know many can feel depressed at Christmas and I wish those all the best too.

Re: Surgery done.
Yes I too have noticed that the dogs will go right to a wound. No matter if it's a paper cut or major surgery. The nose KNOWS! Dogs are trained to find cancer- wont find a tabby doing that.
My Neice is 6 months along in her first pregnancy, her chocolate lab( one of my pups) will pester her until sit sits down for a daily LAB test. A good long sniffing and of course a few ear scratches then back to business.
Heal well Nath!

Thank you for thinking of the sad and the lonely at Christmas. It is clear you have peace and goodwill toward men in your heart.

You've done admirably, Nath - I'm glad to see that you're well on the path to recovery.
The missus is just showing her love, with her concerns that you might work yourself into another hernia too soon.

It does seem as if she wants to keep you around and healthy. Heal well and keep moving, as long as you remember the difference between soreness and pain.

Re: Surgery done.
Nath, that is the best way to heal, get out as soon as you can. But with this broken leg, the top of the femur right below the hip joint I can't leave the house except for Doctor trips. At least I can sit by the glass doors an watch the deer to come down the ridge and feed in the yard. Just be careful and heal well. The Lord's blessing on you and the wife.

Re: Surgery done.
Be careful with the hydrocodone-acetaminophen. Or paracetamol as it is called in the UK. The hydrocodone part can cause addiction and the acetaminophen/paracetamol can cause liver damage if taken in more tham 4,000 milligram quantities per day. These warnings are general warnings. Hydrocodone with acetaminophen is a good pain reliever, and is safe when used properly. Sort of like a good firearm, respect it and use it properly.

I was on a Pain Contract with the VA....they prescribed two a day. Too much, IME...I took one when I was sure I was going to bed. No affect next morning and it helped pretty good. The yanked it a few years ago when the tail started wagging the dog and I had zero withdrawal whatsoever. For my hernia operation I took what they recommended and it was a blessing.piller wrote: ↑Sat Dec 29, 2018 3:25 pm Be careful with the hydrocodone-acetaminophen.

Re: Surgery done.
Nothing wrong with using it for pain, and the fact that you had no withdrawal issues says you respected it and yourself. My statement about respecting hydrocodone/acetaminophen holds true for everyone.

Godspeed on your recovery Nath. I had an umbilical hernia surgery back in '94, they pushed it back in and sewed a mesh in to prevent it from pushing back out while healing. Outties suck.
I avoid opiates as the withdrawal symptoms for me are terrible. I can't even handle synthetic opioids like Tramadol, makes me think crazy thoughts, hate the stuff.
