I just had surgery on my tear duct a few days ago, and I have a new perspective on some of the medical issues my wife deals with on a daily basis. I’m currently taking strong antibiotics, Methylprednisolone, and Hydrocodone for the pain. I’ve had to sleep sitting up for the last few days, so there hasn’t been a lot of sleeping. My head is so fuzzy from all the medicine. It makes it difficult to function.

This is nothing in comparison to the amount of medicine my wife takes each day. I’m amazed she is able to get anything done at all.

I also have very little memory of the procedure at all, which is ironic because last week I was reading this post by Marilyn about memory loss during anethesia.
