Well, I'm 4 days out of surgery. Dr. says all went very well, no complications. I however am thinking this sucks right now, with the pain and the taste of the meds. I know I have to look at the bigger picture and that I did the right thing. I am just frustrated that I can't move as easily, even getting up and down, and I haven't been sleep to great since I have to sleep on my back. I still have the drain tube and that is just annoying and the tape itches my skin. I'm sorry for all the complaining, but I feel like this is the right place to do as I'm sure at least one other person will be experiencing the same things. Heartburn is ridiculous and I've quit my regular meds (with no problems) since I can't stand them crushed. Did it once while I was still at the hospital, about threw it all up. I've been monitoring my blood pressure very closely, and my heart rate is excellent. I feel bad for my husband as he is struggling to see me uncomfortable and in pain. And he has a hard time eating since I'm not eating now. I really have to get on his case to eat a meal even though I can't, especially since he's a diabetic. My sister and him have both been very supportive and I'm so glad for that. Again I'm sorry for the negative blurt of emotion, but it has truly helped to let it all out to someone. I hope that everyone is as successful as they hope and reach their goals they have set.
