9 Hours Post-Surgery

So its now 7:30pm. I have to say my foot is still almost fully numb. I can feel my pinkie toe (barely). Otherwise I still have no feeling in my foot from the ankle down. I took another dose of Demerol at 5pm and had supper. My pain level is still a 0 but I'm feeling a little bit of pressure, mainly from swelling. The nurse told me if I think the ACE bandage is getting too tight with the swelling in my foot that I can loosen it some. Also, she told me if the pain gets bad later on that I can alternate taking the Demerol and Ibuprofen every two hours.

Okay, I'll check back in later.
