I just wanted to tell everyone thank you for you prayers. I really needed them! Well I had the surgery last wed and finaly go to come home on monday! YEA! I would like to say say a special thank you to Shelly you are my Angel! I am also sorry I did not call and tell you I had some problems and did not get to go home for almost 6 days. Things seem to be going a little better now please keep me in all your prayers and I have really missed you guys! By the way I need to change my name because tootie_toots does not toot (lol) no not laughing now it hurts to bad! for 5 days anyway! tootie is actually my ****er spaniel just easy for me to remember! I do not care what doctor anyone goes to on here if they don't give you a binder go and get one they make all the difference in the world! I pulled several muscles in my tummy on day 2 from trying to walk to much! It is because of my walker and the way I drag my leg is why I pulled them but it has really made this a long and painfull deal. enough ranting just wanted to say thank you all! Heather you are in my thoughts today luv you too and thanks for the calls. God Bless all of you Karla!

Bless your heart! I can't imagine having pulled abdominal muscles after surgery. OUCH! I'm thrilled you're home now and can sleep in your own bed. I'm also glad things are *moving along* for you again! ; ) Go girl!

Is there a height adjustment or something that you can make on your walker that will cause less of a pull on your abdominal muscles?

You'll be out on that quadcycle with your hubby in no time!!! : )

 

Blessings and Best Wishes! Shelly

I'm so glad to hear you're home and doing better... get plenty of rest and get well soon!  I was in the hospital longer after my abdominoplasty/hernia repair than my RNY (5 days after that one/3 after my RNY) and I was going stark raving mad in that room lol.  I am sure you are glad to be back in your own bed.  **hugs to you and lots of well wishes**
