IT HAS BEEN A ROUGH PATCH 

Apparently some 60-70% of people will feel their arm on fire when the propofol is being administered.  I have had many surgeries, and this has never happened to me.  Well, it did.  I was yelling out my arm is on fire.  She calmed me until I was out.  It was bad.

The surgery went well, but the post-surgery has been really bad.  On my arm, the physiology 

 of my veins is the source of the burning pain.

Things have change over the last 7 years.  Because he only replaced the valve and not the drainage tube, I was discharged by 3 p.m. the same day.  I went back to the hotel, and all was fine.  I was told 24 hours after anesthesia I could drive.  The drive back was fine.  

I woke up on Saturday in real bad shape. I never really got out of bed.  I slept all day.  Going into Sunday morning it was vomiting, diarrhea, and a very painful bloated stomach. I just slept all day Sunday and until 3:30 p.m. On Monday.  I went to Bingo.  I would have been better off in bed.

I am working hard to make sure the Senate Judiciary Commission has everything they need on Judge Sullivan.  Any state judge who things they can rule in a federal judge is not ft to be a judge.  I am working on it.  Right now, my fatigue is mild, so I can get work done.

Today I am compiling documents for the Senate Judiciary Committee.
