I had my chiari decompression surgery on June 3. I get to go back to the hotel hopefully tomorrow and then back home Tuesday after my staples are out. Dr. Heffez and Columbia St Marys Milwaukee has been amazing. It was hard getting off the pain pump. I have been really nauseated but only actually thrown up 1 time. Any tips for flying home? Hope to post more when I get my strength back.XO
Two words “muscle relaxers”… and also distracting items like books, trash mags, etc… Anything to take your mind off of it. The muscle relaxers actually make me a bit funny and the time goes faster as everything is hilarious. Maybe that’s just me though. Good luck and a safe flight home!
