It's day four and I must say i feel very different. I went to the doc and they removed one of my drains. I still have another one that hurts, hopefully by Friday I can have this one removed. My back hurts so much from being hunched over. I think that's the worst pain so far. I'm taking the pain meds every 12 hours instead of every 4 and it's doable. I'm supposed to go back to work on Wednesday, I can't see that happening.

My biggest support

I had family come to help me during the weekend since I have two toddlers but I must admit the biggest help has been my hubby. I'm so surprised and so grateful that he has been with me since day one. When he goes to work I miss him like crazy and it's just not because he helps me move around but because I feel like safer around him. I don't know if all these medicines are making me over emotional but I hate feeling alone and sometimes the pain just makes me want to cry.

So yesterday was the day and I miust say it's even a painful two days. My back hurts even more from walking hunched. Last night I mistaken my muscle relaxers for my pain meds and was in so pain all night. It wasn't till this morning that I realized it and took two pain meds. Hopefully tomorrow I can walk a bit more straight. The doc says I can shower but I'm afraid to take off the bandages.

I was afraid to shower and take off the bandages too so I waited an extra day. I'm 12 post op and I'm STILL walking hunched over! My lower back has been strained out since 1 minute post op LOL I would say I'm walking 90% straight today. Keep us updated!

This back pain is insane! I can't wait till in off all these pain killers and can walk around straight. One day at a time. We are almost there.

Yes! I was telling my PS and the nurse that I feel like a cave women LOL I only had to take the pain meds for 4-5 days.

I have been using a lot of ice packs on my back. That seems to help. That, and not walking much ;)
