Dude, what you went through (except your surgery was faster) was pretty close to what DH did. Except that he dislocated his shoulder as part of the break, and they cranked him up on Versed and even then couldn't get it back in (because the ball that goes into the joint was broken, sigh).
It is going to take a while to get over this. DH did not get Percocet but got oxycodone instead. Or maybe it's the same, just a generic. It sure got him through the worst of it.
The pee thing is an aftereffect of the surgical anesthesia. They have to make sure it didn't shut down.
Don't. Rush. The. Recovery.
That's a crucial point. Right now your body needs to heal. Soon it'll be time to start pushing it. But these first few weeks need to be healing time.
