I'm 5 days out, not feeling well. Went to see my internist today and I have phlebitis in my hand from the IV (luckily not the deep kind) but very painful and I have pneumonia! If you have fever, don't let your surgeon tell you to just take Tylenol, get it checked out! Please send me good healing thoughts!

Hope you get better each and every day!

Re: Post op blues
Sounds rough! I also spent the first six weeks post-op fighting infections. At thee time, I was miserable. Now it's just a distant memory. Take good care of you.
