P2.2 femurs June 2026 (Paley/Robbins)

Edit Post

My notes from last night:
2 oxy at 245p
Next morphine at 5p. (Edit: did i actually get this?)

730p:  2 oxy
 (Requested, felt a bit pain coming in while just lying there)

10p pain starting (light, im trying to nip in bud)

1015p tylenol did nothing
1115p toradol- also able to flip to prone now for some reason immediately. Maybe just slept a lot
      For flipping and general mvmt, there's a metal ring hanging over my chest which is greatly helpful, grab and pull
1135p able to move to lying on side and pee (side was painful before, )

I sleep in 15 minute spurts , wake briefly then doze back in to dreamland..  the waking was happening always even when pain was 0.

1135p:  so far the experience has been quite bearable. Only the pee aspect is bad, just hate that full bladder sensation.  Thankfully when i go into sleep mode the bladder sensation goes away.  In normal life i wake up 2-4 times at night to pee so perhaps the every 15 minutes thing is due to the bladder problem here.  Or that theres a light in in the room

1145p toradol def helping i can perform more ambitious movements like lifting groin when prone to put pillow under
Interesting i feel very awake all the time yet as soon as lie down and close eyes, i am dreaming.  Is it the opiates
Or because my body is just exhausted in repair mode

1223a there's itch deep inside my left thigh,
  Annoying because scratch does nothing
On that note, my left thigh totally numb but right thigh can feel.   Told that's normal for nerve block.

Day 2 (yesterday= day 1 = surgery day)

After 1210a day 2, was more difficult.  Waking every 15 minutes and bladder sensation but couldn't pee.  Shifting to prone laborious due to wires tangled up hospital gown and the one tapped to left index finger sometimes forces·hand to not comfy prone Lying position.

Around 215a i used a pillow case as an eye mask and then slept in 1 hour spurts.

Peeing and sleeping was better from this point on
It's now 420am i can Pee semi regularly if i hoist myself up like a board, upper body up as high as possible.  I think elevating bladder as high above bed level is why it helps
