I'm continuing to recover from the surgery. About the only pain remaining is the deep aching pain in my lower back, other than a little where they took a bone graft and marrow out of my pelvis. I'm down to only two or three pain meds a day, so that's good, as I hate the foggy feeling in the head that the Percocet gives me. I've to take some Tylenol for low level pain during the day, instead of popping more Percocet. Still walking every day, though some days are a little rough, because I know it will help in the long run.
Also, I know some of you have followed my thread about restoring my 70 Nova, the paint shop called today and said I could come and get all the loose pieces as they were all done. So tomorrow, a couple of friends are going to meet me at the paint shop and we'll bring the hood, front fenders, trunk lid and a few small parts back to my shop. After they get the body shell wet sanded and buffed out, and the dash painted, probably on Friday or Monday, they'll hang the doors and have the towing company bring it to my shop.
So, progress on two fronts is being made, but I'll have to wait a few more months on my back recovering before I can do any serious work on the Nova.
Thanks for sharing your experiences and wishing me well, it's much appreciated.
