Day 7
Still lots of pain but mostly at night. I can't sit for very long or the pain intensifies. Trying to find relief any way I can. I called the doctor and the staff asked what kind of pain I was having. When I explained to them they told me that was normal. My first thought was "then why in the world did you not tell me about it during my consult?!!!" They told me to take some Tylenol and keep wearing the spanx and it should go away. Surprisingly, the extra strength Tylenol did seem to help. Not taking ALL the pain away but it's pain I can live with. Still did not have a full night's sleep even with the Tylenol PM. The immense pains wakes me up and I have to reposition and adjust and massage for a bit in order to go back to sleep. I just want to be my happy self again.
Day 6
Last night was the most painful experience. I could not sleep because of the pain. I tried laying, sitting standing. Nothing helped. I put on the spanx again and that seemed to help a little but it was uncomfortable to say the least. The pain ranged from stabbing, shooting to aching to throbbing. If you would've asked me last night if it was worth it, I would've told you NOOOOOO! Today seems to start on a positive note. Still bouts of stabbing pain but it goes away. I'm going to try to keep busy so I don't dwell on the pain. Wish me luck. On the positive side, I was in so much pain yesterday I didn't feel like eating much and thaynwill help with the weight loss since I'm not exercising ;)
Day 5 SPANX ARE MY NEW BEST FRIENDS
Wear your spanx or you'll be sorry. When I take them off I feel it pretty bad. Yesterday afternoon I started feeling the pins and needles. Some sharp pains throughout the day but nothing I couldn't breathe through. I can best describe the soreness now like after I had my c-section. I'm slow to get up from sitting or laying down but not crazy amounts of pain. I have had a couple of really sharp pains that have stopped me in my tracks but they don't last. That's the one thing I have to say is that the pain is intense but it only lasts a few seconds. Have not had to take any pain medicine so Yay! I have not resumed my workouts but I have been walking. Bruising had started to clear up.
