Gary...
Sorry about that...I misinterpreted what you meant about feeling crappy.

My doc prescribed me some medication for going to sleep or pain or whatever. I took one pill about 5 hours after the surgery to go to sleep. I actually felt I didnt need it, but I wanted to make sure I slept well and got adequate rest so my body would recover better. After that, I never took another pill, and they're still somewhere in a cabinet. The only thing odd about the feeling afterwards was adjusting to the odd feeling (not painful) in the back of your head. You're definitely right that you have to adjust to that feeling. Some people have post-op problems for sure. Overall, I think I recovered much much better and had far less complications/problems than the average HT patient.
