Good news, Dinah!! Welcome to the other side! I, too had a hard time with

the IV, which IMO is worse than the surgery! Stay well!

Dinah,

Congratulations on being on the other side. I will be praying for you. I

hate getting IV's they always end up doing the same thing to me and it is

excruciating pain. Take care and keep us posted

So glad that you are OK, Dinah!!! You'll be sore a while, but it gets

better every waking day. Glad that you are well.
