The gauze is out and the long acting anesthetic still has control of the pain.\u00a0 Cold packs on my right every half hour, ibuprofen and vicodin for bedtime.\u00a0 Should be ok, though tomorrow could be worse than today.\u00a0 Cheer up, things could be worse.\u00a0 I cheered up and, sure enough, things got worse.<\/p>\n
