This morning I had my surgery on my right ankle (opened up, insert plate and 9 pins due to 3 fractures). They sent me home with this medication ball hooked through a cathader in my leg. Numbs my leg from the knee down......side effect, it numbed my god damn fingers, my upper leg twitches, and I have a metallic taste in my mouth.
Doctor called, luckily he okayed clamping it off and seeing if I can handle the pain on Percocet alone. I'm hoping it works cause it's really irritating having to carry this bag with the ball in it, and I have freaking wires coming out my leg.
