Week 21

21 weeks here and feeling great. Life is pretty much back to normal at this stage. At times I still feel the weird tingling sensation, but usually only here and there. I am back to running, and recently did a 12 mile long run. I'm pretty much back to where I was in speed and endurance. I still run wearing Spanx higher power panties. Just makes me feel a little more confident. I will probably continue this until the 6 month mark.

6 wk PO

There has been a significant jump in my MR repair healing since week 4/5. I'm really starting to feel back to normal. I'm flat in the morning, and have minimal swelling even after running 3 miles. I find I can now be out of the house for a full day with no discomfort. I'm able to sleep well on both sides.

5 weeks!

I can't believe how good I feel - almost back to normal. I am not constantly aware of the MR anymore. It feels like it has softened inside or something - not really sure how to describe it. I said the first few weeks if felt like I had a cutting board inside my belly. So hard feeling and stiff. The last few days, I can actually imagine myself being able to run comfortably again. My swelling has been minimal, but every week I can see less and less. Even when I do a lot of activity, I don't really swell much at all, it's not really noticeable. The most annoying thing of this whole thing has been the lifting restrictions - I'm not allowed to lift anything more than 10 lbs for 6 weeks. This has been so hard. It makes shopping and laundry so hard! I can't even pick up my cat! I will be so happy this restriction will be gone shortly.
