Morning! I am in Arizona. Will be having everything done at Mayo Clinic in Phoenix. I love that place! They have been wonderful with other surgeries that myself or family members have had there. I also have an adjustable bed so I think that will help to get me up to sitting position to get out of bed. I can’t imagine laying flat. I know I’ll be in pain, from what I’ve read on all the different posts in here, but I’m trying to get some ideas on what may help best. I even bought a set of those leg massagers that they use after surgeries to keep the blood circulating so you don’t get blood clots. I’m trying to be super prepared. Even have those prepared meal kits being delivered. Only for once a week for a month. Can’t afford more than that, but it will give my husband a break so he won’t get exhausted trying to go to work and take care of me and everything else.
