After eating thanksgiving dinner, not a lot, as I didn’t want to blow up. Swelling is a constant irritation, but no pain. Feeling amazing. Still wearing abdominal binder as it feels better but occasionally just wear spanx.

I feel as though the swelling and/or bloating has gotten worse this week, almost at 4wks than last week. I was even on my period last week and would have thought I’d have been more bloated then. Maybe it’s just me. Maybe feeling better, I’m doing more, or trying to, and am doing too much.

I’ve had some setbacks. Hematomas. I continue to have a lot of drainage from one of my drains. The other was removed last week at almost 3wks post op. Been on Tylenol the last week. Pain is much better. Worry every day, with the coughing, sneezing, vomiting, blowing my nose, that I’ve messed something up. Feel bloated, take gas x. Is it just swelling? I look forward to this all being in the past. Being active again. It’s hard being so careful not to use abdominal muscles and much harder than imagined.
