8 days post op
So I'm officially 8 days post op today. And I'm in pain. Day 4&5 I had no more pain just lots and lots of tightness. I was soooo uncomfortable I couldn't stand it. And it was in those 2 days that I had my break down and hated them and cried. Hahah all those emotions are gone now. I had my post op appt on day 6 and felt good for the most part. He took my stitches out and put some tape on and all was looking good. Later that day the pain came and stayed until the next morning when I took a pain pill. Then it came back later that night and now this morning day 8 I took another pain pill. I'm sore to the touch and just generally sore all over. I'm hoping this is just another short phase and the pain stops or at least gets better soon. I feel like I've been such a baby through this whole process!
Not as bad as I thought!
So I had my surgery on Friday in the morning. I was calm until they told my mom and boyfriend to leave and started wheeling me to the back. They put something in my IV to calm me and then have me gas and then I woke up. I felt mostly pressure when I woke up. A little pain but not as bad as I thought. Right after I woke up I went to the bathroom on my own. I came home and went to sleep. When I woke up I was in a lot of pain. I felt so stiff and uncomfortable. I got up and walked around a little bit and moved my arms around to try to loosen up. I felt so much better after that. I took my meds every 3.5 hours instead of every 4. And I set alarms to take them while I was asleep too. And when I woke up to take my meds I walked around and moved my arms too. I did not want to feel stiff like that again. I slept great the whole time. Saturday morning I threw up I'm sure it from taking a bunch of meds while I was sleeping and not eating. But after that I felt good. Sunday was even better. I haven't had any real pain since Friday right after. I'll add some pictures too.
