I'm ok for the most part.....n your right no time is good...lol....haven't used any pain pills since last post but for me it's a rest thing.....u can't heal if u don't rest....the day after surgery I had to drive to airport ....that was fun ...teenage driver first time on freeway n I couldn't see a thing cuz had to lay down in back seat...lol....but I so HAPPY with what I see so far ...my swelling going down stomach actually is pretty flat for day 5. I do have 3 things slowing me down I'm not a big water drinker, I don't like pineapple juice n I don't like being cold so my icing isn't as much as it should be.....but I am using my time wisely...shopping online at VS....yippee

So had surgery yesterday afternoon Dr. Shifrin and team great so many laughs before surgery made me feel so comfortable... Surgery was at 1pm n I was home by abt 430 pm walking by 530 and walking every 2 hrs in fact was up sweeping floor abt half hour ago started out with 1 pain pill every 4 hrs n at 730 switched to one pain pill every 5 hrs....my throat was more sore than anything ....got nauseous after walking a cpl time but took cpl sips ginger ale and laid back down n was great..... Most soreness is when getting up n down but I'm sure when I get my compression garment will be better because pain mostly due to gravity.....I have had minimal drainage only cpl spot of blood on my chuks and about grapefruit sized blood stain on dress,... All in all feel really good.... I'm sure dr shifrin would be telling me to relax more especially about sweeping floor at 130 am....would send pics but will wait till tomorrow but every cpl hours I can see the changes as swelling starts to subside
