Day 3 Post Op

$5,300
I'm very tired today but I have been able to shower and sit at the dinner table to eat with my kids. Now I'm exhausted! My abdomen and hot pocket are very swollen right now. Its like a huge pound of brown meat sausage. Ewwwww! Why wasn't I warned that THAT was going to swell to three times its size? I guess i need to massage that down, too! Lol! I wanted to post photos before I call it a night. Happy recovery!

PROFILE

Dr. Naman is very personable and his staff is friendly and warm. His office is clean, neat and it smells good. The rooms aren't cold and sterile. I was impressed with the technology. There are patient television screens to watch information about procedures while you wait and I can view my photos online! Dr. Naman took whatever time was needed while I asked questions. His staff did as well.

Wow,, congratulations. You look great.
Thanks! I'm starting to feel much better, too!
You look great!! Copied down your list too. How's the swelling? Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to join you at the end of this month!!
Thanks! The swelling is absolutely painful. Im taking the Traumeel and Arnica pills today. Im also using a hot towel and placing on my lower pelvic area to help alleviate some of the swell. Everything else is good. You will do well and don't worry about the pain. Its fleeting for a lifetime of results
Traumeel... That's new to me. But you are so right.. a lifetime of results! Hang in there we are praying for you! Thanks!!
I know you are excited! Congratulations! I'm doing well at 13 days PO. I'm still a little sluggish, especially when I wake up. I have my CG on 24/7. I still have my drains in and I don't swell too much, but when I do I sit down, elevate my feet and lightly massage the areas. It feels much better. I also use the Arnica and Traumeel. You will be good and on the flat side soon!
Thx!!!#

I'm happy you are doing so well and looking great!
Thank you! You'll be joining me soon!
Glad to see you are doing so well. Your incision is so low and thin :( I'm jealous lol continue to heal well. Take care.
I'm thankful and grateful of my family who are helping me out. I'm not cooking, yet. I'm still enjoying being pampered! The walker my PS loaned me is a blessing!
Hey newtummy4ptc, thanks much and I hope you are continuously healing well.

I Peeked!

So, i'm only two days in and I took a peek :) I'll post the pictures in a second because it is easier for me to type on my laptop than on my phone. This recovery has been uneventful (thankfully). I have been spending time on the couch and in the bathroom. My PS and staff called to check in on me. I thought that was very sweet...it's the little things that make me smile. In any event, I told them my back was hurting and they loaned me a walker! So, now I am getting around much faster. I didn't care too much for showering. It's too messy. But it has to be done! I have slowed down on the meds (Hydrocodene and the other for nausea). I now take them every 6-8 hrs. as opposed to every 4-6 hours. I'm a little bruised and I have swelled (my little hot pocket is 3 times its normal size) but nothing major that would require a call to the PS. I've heard the horror stories about recovery but I (thankfully) have not experienced any of them. Photos coming soon.
