I went into the operating theatre at 13.30hours on Tuesday and was awake again at 15.30. with a total replacement right hip. I had quite a raging thirst and managed to drink two water jugs dry, together with three cups of tea over the next few hours, at which point I vaguely recalled being told that 50% of males had trouble passing water after a spinal anesthetic. It turned out that I was one of the affected percentage and I desperately needed a catheter at 03.30 Wednesday, after which 4 litres made their grateful escape!
I'm walking with sticks and I've now negotiated stairs and completed the physical exercise regime practice, so after another visit to the gym, I should be on my way home tomorrow.
