Going in for surgery today

[Raphael3636]

Well fellas the day has finally come. I’m going in today for my umbelical hernia surgery. Little stressed out over it, specifically over the healing time. 4-6 weeks is really gonna take a toll on me mentally being outta the gym. It is what it is though. Going to be bringing down my calories to maintenance numbers. I will be running test prop EOD 50mg during this time, and also I got my hands on a few Genotropin pens, I figure at 2 iu a day will greatly help with recovery.

Stay ahead of the pain, Im a wimp, but 2 days were bad for me. I had adhesions taken down from the first one. I have to laugh because I “ordered” hydromorphone from the surgeon for home 4mg every 2 0r 4 hrs. HA! I get the healing zzone ready and I get a few oxycodones.

 

[Raphael3636]

Staying on top of the pain I think is key here. They gave me oxycodone, but I really try not to take em. Last night was definitely a little uncomfortable and had to take a few though.

Tell them you want tapentadol its a good painkiller and is alot less addictive.
Best luck in your recovery
