I have never complain about pain throughout all the surgeries I have had. Not once have I broke down and posted on OH or the other on line group I go to about this.
I have been the picture of upbeat and not once have I allowed anyone to know just how friggin miserable I am. BUT tonight I can not be the smiling upbeat post op. I am in pain the worst pain I have ever had! I feel like I have been stabbed and the knife been twisted in side of me. Not to mention the nausea coming from the pain. If someone was to ask me now would I recommend having  a tt my answer would be worst then the crept keeper's laugh. This pain totally sucks. I was not able to sleep last night because of it. My tummy has been pulled so tight that when I have gas pains I feel like I am going to die... and the funny part cause I always have to find something funny is this...my nurse says the pain is from the nerves coming together..her way of explaining it was this the nerves are like magnets and they are attracting each other....
but on the otherside I am being released from having a nurse come to see everyday so HOPEFULLY I can go to NC for awhile...and maybe my big brother and I can go winter camping...

pattye, I am so sorry you are hurting. It sounds painful. You need to share these things so you don't go through it alone. I will be saying prayers for you.

Oh Pattye!  I am so sorry you are having that kind of pain now.  I would think that this far out from your TT you should be through the worst pain.  You do need to share this with us, we are here for you! I hope the pain gets better soon!

Hugs,
Marsha

I'm sorry you are having so much pain.  Hopfully it will go away soon and you can go camping with your brother!  I can't imagine wanting to go out in the cold for anything!  But If thats what you want I hope you feel better and go and have a wonderful time!
Hugs

Kim. its something that we have done in the past...its really to see who can handle the cold the longest...especially when there is snow on the ground. Last time we went I outlasted him. The poor baby with his below zero sleeping bag had to go around 2 am. Here I was in a regular sleeping bag with 3 pair of sweats on a  2 shirts with a hoodie...Girls just rule!
Funny part is 3 years go my roommate and I went camping Easter weekend at Fort Supply..I was the cry baby that night. The wind came whipping off the lake and I felt like a popsicle but I never went and got into the truck till around 8:30 am....my excuse then was to find a store and get coffee...

You are much tougher then I am.  I am freezing all the time lately.  I don't know if its my body lacking a vitamin or what but I can't get warm.  I was always HOT before surgery.  Not I am FREEZING all the time.  Its bad!  I wear gloves and a coat and everything.  That is NOT me!  I don't even own a coat.  I've been wearing my DH coat!  LOL!
I hope you are better and can go camping.  I'm happy you have something you like so much.  I think I'll wait until summer! LOL!  I don't rule that way! :)!

Dear you are losing your insulation and it just gets worse.... I would suggest you buy a sweat jacket.....I wear one in the house or a sweater...lol when I go home I am gonna sneak one of my brothers flannel shirts and just forget to give it back...
The reason why we do the winter camping was years ago he had to do a winter camping for search and rescue training. he claimed i couldnt handle it so when they had to again up in the mountains i went to...

You sound really adventurous and outgoing!  I like to be around people but I like to be warm!  LOL!  I think it sounds like a lot of fun though!  The flannel shirt sounds COZY!!!!
