Not a lot of pain at all. Surprising mild, until you cough or sneeze. 🙂
No drugs at all except Tylenol. I think I'm going to up the dose to 2 extra strength to alleviate some of the aches.
The worst pain last night was in my back. I think it's from the position they have you lying in during the procedure. You are on this small "sticky" pad, as they called it, and it goes from your shoulders to just above your butt. The lower back is where it hurts. I am going to sleep in the recliner tonight.

I hope it's not that sticky - and if it is, hopefully I'm dressed. Otherwise I'll be getting a free back wax. Lower back always hurts, so no change there.
