 Well the surgery was about 50 minutes.  I could not believe how many times after the incision, with a 6" needle attached to a caterer, that the surgeon could not find my vein.  It was horrid for me.  Finally, he found it and connected the caterer to the laser and blasted.  It burnt afterwards.  I burnt all the way home (my leg) and the cut too, was burning.  The incision was at my ankle's side. Right below where my last wound was.  I have been sleeping all day simply because of the procedure - it got me mentally.  Also he gave me a prescription for pain.  I have to keep my leg up for two days and a lot more the rest of the week - no shower for two days either!!! I can go to the dinner table, or to the bathroom.  It is truly wrapped tight. The swelling has started as well as brusing too. That is normal.  I will have to go back next Monday for another ultra sound to see how it did.  Then the following week (Monday) to see the surgeon. 

This was so much fun!!!   All my friends, I love you all sooo much!!!

Thanks for your confidence in me, your support, love and prayers.
