Title: Successful surgery and no post-op CH!
Post by AppleNutClusters on Jun 12^th, 2012 at 5:55pm

I'm sure it's the massive amounts of painkillers and whatnot, but I'm happy to report that I did not wake up from general anesthesia with a CH. That came later, and was quickly put in its cage with Imitrex (02 huffing is OUT as it can dislodge the prosthesis the way we do it).

Just an update for anyone who may have been following my posts elsewhere. Thanks for your support. :)

Yes I was, Joe! And I hadn't even considered that 02 would be a no-no due to the ear pressure. So glad my insurance lets me have as much Imitrex as I can shoot. :)

And thanks to you too, Mike! I was kinda hoping he'd sever that "CH nerve" while he was in there, but no such luck. LOL.
