- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Healing up now! Just to remember to take it easy now that I feel good!
Post Op
Had my post op app today and looks like everything is healing well :)
I am starting to feel less lethargic especially after my shower and getting over the constipation hump.
I went home to my apartment today after being taken care of by my best friend since the day of surgery. Now I just have to drill it into my head to not overdo it!

Ouch! (2 days post)
I've been pretty much gloating to everyone about how I feel better than I ever thought I would after surgery. So I thought today would be appropriate to start cutting back on pain meds (because of the GI effects and constipation sucks).
BAD IDEA.
In between my "let's taper off the meds" attitude and my desire to be productive (I'm knitting a cable-intense neck warmer), I managed to push my limits too far. I ended up in tears by the end of the night. I was allowed a shower today but after pushing myself I'm deciding to wait until my post-op appt, which is tomorrow.
Other highlights of the day was I had my first bowel movement post surgery. Despite prepping with stool softeners and lots of fiber in my diet, nothing could have prepared me for how terrible the constipation is. I had my sister run out and grab me coffee and Mag Citrate, just in case nothing happened.
Thus far, today is probably the most painful day I've had (I'm going to put most of the blame on myself).
