Continued...from the day if my arrival at hotel (night of 7/21) -
wit help from mr. wonderful Ronnie and an aide that had pre-hired (was waiting for me at hotel) I and my bags etc (including ERC) was transferred to the hotel room. The aide warmed up some food for me (Ronnie was not hungry) and meanwhile Ronnie gave me some general guidance etc. thing to note here - my surgery was on 7/19 an I traferred to hotel on 7/21 but I had already booked hotel on 7/18 and had put ample of frozen food, protein bar, fruits etc. in the freezer and had put clothes etc. around as well as some first aid kit near bedside table.
At night aide and Ronnie were gone I went to sleep , sleep was ok (maybe 4-5 hours) but not as good as it used to be in hospital with diluaid (oh I miss dilaudid every second, and I want to give double nobel awards to the inventor of dilaudid). Pain was low to moderate (0 to 4-5 when I tried to move things), taking recommended dose of oxycodon was enough. Morphine is a useless piece of dogcrap drug I can tell you that, does nothing.
Continued... we are on 7/22 now -
No PT, PT guy came on Tuesday (7/23) from what I remember. My aide cooked me some food and I did some walking with walker wit help from my aide. That is it. Pain very low to moderate, Oxycodone was enough (morphine was useless)
Continued... we are on 7/23 now -
PT guy came , made me walk a bit in the room, made me do some bending , stretching etc. small exercises and told me that my motions, 4 days after surgery, are better than anyone else's he has seen. It was good to hear that. He said real PT will take place (start) at PT clinic on 7/25 and somebody will contact me on 7/24 to give details. Aide cooked food, I ate.
I repeated a previous mistake here again - before that let me tell you that I bought a bedside commode from Amazon along with disposable bags etc. (if you see my diary earlier you will read my horrible experience seating on normal commode), anyway I asked aide to help me seat on the bedside commode s that I can take dump (it was 5th day without clearing stomach) , I set there for 30 minutes - nothing came out but then when I tried to get up I could not and my pain reached 10/10 (I even tried calling PT to come help me get up, he did mo pick up, though he had called later, I was so much in pain I thought of calling 911), only after a lot of struggle I was able to get up and went to bed. That night I slept and read diaries on how to get the poop out. Next day (7/24), as per Vertical's diary I took like 5-6 dalculax and man, within 5 minutes I was (with help from aide) on bedside commode and dumping out anacondas after anacondas, full clean stomach 
. Later the next morning (aroudn 1 AM) I pooed even more (was able to get up on my own using walker) and was feeling so clean and good.

Hei bro, usually the pain is actually very low, like 0 to 1 , the problem is when you expose yourself to some extreme situations , like I sat on the uneven commode for such long time thus asking for trouble. Actually I was thinking about my normal self where I used to watch videos while waiting for dump to come out but what I forgot is after LL your bowel movement is screwed because of pain medicine and you cannot just seat on commode expecting to come out, Dulcolax is the king. Keep Dulcolax with you.

haha right on will keep that in mind
Continued .... day 7/24 -
This is the day I was told to start my distraction, but I had this mental thing in my mind that until I clear my stomach I will not start distraction, after taking the dulcolax I was able to clear my stomach around 5 PM and my mind was ready to start distraction, but what I did not want to do was to do 3 distractions withing a span of like 2 hours each (since it was already 5 PM), I wanted at least 5 hours gap between two distractions , so I decided that on the first day I will lengthen only .66mm. I called up my friend and advisor Ronnie and he concurred with my decision. Nothing more to that day. Went to sleep after 2nd distraction around 11 PM. Note: i) PT guys did not call, I texted them but no response. ii) did some walking with walker in hotel, with aide on my side
