My radical prostatectomy surgery is a week from tomorrow.

I'll have my laptop in the hospital so I can take and post pics of the oozing wound as I'm all doped up on morphine.![]()
They give you a trigger to press so you can give yourself hits of the dope.![]()

I'm glad you're OK. I know how you feel about the waiting. After I did all of the right things- seeing multiple docs and surgeons for second opinions, asking batteries of questions, considering all of my options, discussing it over and over with my hubby; once the decision was made, I just-wanted-it-over-with! I'm glad I asked because I'm going to circle next Tuesday on my calendar. I will be sending you truckloads of positive thoughts and PS dust (and yes, prayers too!)
Yup, I know about the *instant gratification dope machine"! only mine had Dilaudid in it. Unfortunately for me, it started to affect either my heart rhythm or my blood pressure. I don't remember which. So I was limited in how many times I could push that button.
Boooo!! LOL! But for the first 2 days? When you need it? You hit that button! It definitely helps, although you might feel a bit like this........![]()
