A little more bruising than last time, but overall, I am doing very well. Not coughing like I did after the last surgery, and my voice is better. Could it be my anesthesiologist did a better job this time?

I have a little more energy each day, but I still have to sit and rest for a while if I get up and do very much.

Also, I need to get some kind of routine down for taking my medicine early in the morning. I’m supposed to wait an hour after my Synthroid before eating, and four hours before taking supplements.

I weighed myself this morning and I have gained about 6 pounds since my first surgery. Once my meds are stabilized and I am up and running, I am going to have to give that my attention.
