Well I am 8 1/2 weeks Post Op. At my last appt. I asked my PS what kind of exercises I could start doing and I either tuned him out or he didn't say what I could do as far as working out. He was ok with me lifting but I just have a blank as if I can do crunches yet.
So I found this list of 30 day Challenges on Pinterest and I bought an exercise trampoline and started doing the jumping jack challenge. I felt ok afterwards. No pain or anything.
Went to work the next day and it felt like someone kicked me in my bahunkus! The pain wasn't horrible just that "make it burn" supposed to be good pain. Lol Then after being on my feet all day (30 min sit down at lunch) and the type of work I do, I felt like I had an all over body whooping! Sore yes but the good sore. No pain or any issues that I know of where I was cut and my insides don't feel like they're floating around.
It does feel like I need to get ready to do Day 2 of the Jumping Jack Challenge before it gets too late.
Bye!

I have another appointment tomorrow and hopefully he takes out this other drain. I haven't been under 30ml in 24hrs yet but I noticed that the tube isn't attached to my hip anymore. Its just there! The skin must of ripped more and the thread it just there. Everyone at home is grossed out by my scar and drain tubes that they don't want to look and give their opinion. Bunch of sissys lol! So I have a ace bandage wrapped around my thigh and the tube taped to my leg. That sucker isn't coming out on its own and giving me a panic attack!
I feel like I can stand up straighter now but not for long. My back still kills me. I did 2 loads of laundry and some dishes but took several breaks. Don't want to do too too much but my boyfriend 1/2asses the laundry and I can't put dirty clothes on or dry off with a towel that was washed with the dog towel and bedding. REALLY!!

Its been 1 week and I still have my drain tubes in. Although they pinch and are uncomfortable, I think its better that they are still in. I have draining a lot. I went for a follow up yesterday and my doc said that if in a 24 hr period I am under 30 ml, I can call and have them removed. Otherwise I'll have to wait until Wednesday. Every once in awhile, I get sick to my stomach with the stuff in the tubes and bulbs. My back is hurting like a bioch. This past Tuesday I slept comfortably and had 0 pain. I didn't really use my walker most of the day but I paid for it when it came time to take a shower.
My daughter has caught the bug going around and I went through feeling hot to cold back to hot and back to cold today. I've been taking my pain pills maybe 1 1/2-2 mostly around shower time but today I took 4 so far. My back and body hurt so much today that I don't even want a shower. Even though a shower would ease my back, I can't do it.
