Surgery went well. Admitted to Shouldice on Monday around 1pm. Boooored for the rest of that day.
Tuesday was the surgery (about 12:30pm). Was on three pills (one of which was valium, don't remember the other two) but was conscious throughout the proceedure. Lots of tugging and thumping... No pain.
Woke up later that day. Apparently there was a 1-2 second delay between questions and my answers. Couldn't walk around until about 10pm.
Half of my clips removed on Wednesday, remainder removed today. Drove home, then off to Scotch Club.

Lots of clips. Day after surgery.

Fewer clips after half were removed on Wednesday.

This is what the wound currently looks like. No clips, no dressing. I have to take a sponge bath for the next five days. More moving around = less pain during recovery. I have a bit of a limp, but I'm no longer on any pain medication.
Over all a pretty easy experience. Food wasn't great, and they only shaved half of me.......
