And then I’m awake and my brain can only remember that it was in agony. That’s the weird thing for me with being sedated. I wake up in the same place. In the same conversation. In the same pain.

My body basically hated the stents. It’s been a day and a half and things still hurt. I have some nerve damage which is an expected outcome. I have medication for that. I have medicine to stop acid because I have gastritis.
