I didn't have an epidural with surgery, although it would have been nice. The surgeon also ordered my morphine to be intermuscular (meaning I got a painful shot in the thigh that burnt like hell everytime I needed pain relief). I really am going to start that post surgery thread soon. Oh, I will be flying home on Wednesday afternoon. My husband went home to our girls yesterday, they are doing really good for not having seen me in over a week. I miss them dearly; but know that this time of healing without kids is the best for me. I have people caring for them,when I get home, during the day, when my hubby is at work. They are going to take care of them for as long as I need to heal. I'm sure this will help in my healing and taking it easy.
