That’s great news. You actually get sort of used to the shots. I had to have heparin shots every 8 hours for two weeks, and while they were never fun, they weren’t a big deal after a while.
My surgeon never stitches the mouth. Studies show that there’s far less pain and tightness when they just leave it alone.
I go in for my urethrostomy on the 28th, where they’ll re-route my urethra to the perinium.
