Hi, I have lupus and have suffered from severe arthritis in my knees for a few years. I have not had the screaming pain in my knees since the day of surgery (10 wks) and haven't had to take any Tylenol 3s. I am feeling lighter pains in the past few days, but have had some major stress happening in the past 2 weeks. I usually react about 2 wks after major stressors. Haven't really noticed any lupus specific problems since surgery other than what I mentioned. Fatigue after surgery, but that is to be expected, maybe mine was a bit more than the average person but you gotta roll with it. Hope things are going well for you. Good luck on your journey.
Oh no! Hopefully your body will get used to everything quickly and it won't be for long. You take care!
Thank you! I wished It went as planned! Day 5 still in hospital! Can't keep anything down! Just put in a pic feeding tube. Even when I have put nothing in my mouth liquids are still coming up in non stop burps! Everything else feels great no swelling and lil nausea the first day. Doctors sayir will pass! I sure hope so cause this is not what I signed up for. How can I make the burping a gurgling of crap stop? No bowels yest or gas passing! Yikes!!
Good luck with your surgery today and hoping for a speedy recovery!
Many blessings and prayers for you today.
