2 to 3 levels is a big surgery. I was not ready for any bigger outing until about day 9. Now at day 12 I can go for several hours, with breaks all day.

I stayed at Sheraton Grand. Don't know about english shows I only watched german and french ones (I am trilingual, so is Zeegers, more like quad lingual). But at least BBC, CNN and, I think, Comedy channel.

Don't know about the pains after surgery, I am sure it varies with everyone. A lady who had surgery the same day (single level) with me seemed to be in much better shape then me at day 4. I was pretty fit going in. Exercised till the day before. Seems the anaestethia meds really got to me, I was seriously dizzy for days.

Ibo's, Stopped the Alphakillers at 2 days. I got pretty high pain tolerance, right now the pain tells me when to be careful, slowdown or stop.
