I had my hemorrhoid staple surgery yesterday afternoon. I started to prepare two days ago with stool softners, water and miralax. Things went great. I went in at 2:00 pm and was out at 4:00 and home by 6:00. The first night was not bad at all. I was confused because of all the stories on this place. I was numb until about midnight. I took a percocet when I went to bed at 9:00. I woke up and took another at 12:00 then again at 4:00 a.m. I woke back up at 8:00 with a little pain due to gas. I had my first BM at 10:00 Am and my second at 1:00 P.M It is now 6:00 and I am wondering around bored. My wife is telling me to lay down but I am not listening. I could go to work tomorrow but it's Friday. I will return to work on Monday unless something comes up. I have been doing the sitz bath every two hours need or not. I think the biggest thing is prepare early, know your surgeon and make sure he has done this before many times and make sure gives you both percocets and valium not vicolin. Sorry for the spelling. If you have a hack surgeon than you will have problems period. Good luck to everyone and I hope everyone the best!!!

I'm very happy to hear that you are recovering well from your surgery and I always appreciate a good story like that. I understand that you are totally ready to go to work already but do bear in mind that you are still recovering from surgery so it might be a good idea to lay off for a bit and just recuperate more than you think is necessary just to be sure. Keep us posted anyway!
