The surgery went pretty well! Although holy cow... surgery makes you feel 50 years older...

They did a biopsy on the piece of colon they removed and it turns out it was free of cancer, which is really good even though it does mean the surgery overall wasn't necessary. Still, there was no way of telling beforehand and this was not something I wanted to gamble with.

But yeah, I feel quite a bit of pain getting up out of bed in the morning and sitting down and up out of chairs still hurts. Looking forward to getting better and hopefully soon.
