Sorry girl, I can't give you a like on that one. Hopefully, you will get through it without too much ado.
Don, you would be proud of me. I haven't had a single pain medicine except Tylenol since I left the hospital!
While I had some problems with the radiation, I know people, including a cousin, who went through radiation therapy for prostate cancer, who claims that he had experienced no side effects whatsoever.
I AM proud of you @Beth Gallagher. I don't want you to suffer unnecessary pain, but avoid taking the opiates if possible and not for over 5 days in any case.
Beth, I apologize for being late with a response, I have been following what's been going on, hard for me to express myself sometimes but I am extremely relieved and happy that the surgery is over, and you're on the road to recovery. Listening to your "chats" all I can think of is "Beth is back", Wow you are truly an amazing person, as always my thoughts and prayers are with you.
