I just sneezed today! It felt like an ax on fire was sliced directly down the middle of my body. Worst. pain. yet.
Husband rushed out to get me a strawberry banana mcdonalds smoothie. I could drink those things by the gallon. And I'm mixing miralax in them. It's all getting a little comical at this point. Other than the sneeze and no BM yet, the end of day 5 is really seeming to be a turning point for me. Less pain, off the vicodin, and standing just a little straighter. All steps in the right direction!
So I had TT no lipo done on Nov 27 morning, but now day 4 morning and still no BM and today belly is swelling like crazy. Am I getting into the swell hell stage I've heard people discuss? I feel pretty good otherwise, just super tight around the belly. I've been drinking prune juice and taking stool softeners, and avoiding sodium (except for Gatorade). Just want reassurance that what I'm feeling is all normal!
I've been dreaming crazy, too! Last night woke up after having eaten a bunny shaped cookie and was so excited to realize that the inside of the cookie was actually taffy! Oh, yum! Imagine my disappoint when I realized it was a dream and the pain had me up and realized I was just due for another Vicodin and some Gatorade . . .
I had a skinny day the day of my surgery also! It's like when you finally schedule a haircut and color and you have the best hair day ever! Always works that way! :)
