Everything went well and I feel fine but twice before I was rolling on the floor screaming for Morphine and the last time. I was in bed for a month after surgery. Didn't think that kind of pain was possible while remaining conscious. Hope you get a good Doctor. This too shall pass (pun intended) but, believe me, I feel your pain.
