Day 5

Woke up this morning extremely rested. My leg was still numb this morning so I slept like a baby all night. I also took a couple of 7.5/500 Vicodin because the doc told me to take it before anesthesia wears off. I slept great and had zero pain. I showered early as well. My leg wrapped in a trash bag as usual. I pretty much laid around and kept my leg elevated. I became a little concerned because my leg was still numb 20 hours later! It wasn't until about 22-23 hours that I was able to wiggle my toes and feel everything again. I have only taken one pain pill and must say that I feel pretty good. I'm going to take it easy the next few days and let me foot down on occasion so that I can get used to having down for work on Monday.
