Home and resting
ah home. My creature comforts around me ( not forgetting to mention my husband, love you honey) so for the most part I'm feeling ok. When I get laying down I can't get up again without yelling out in pain (enter husband here to help pull me up) one incision is very angry with me at the moment and is definitly giving me grief.
I've been able to take all my pills and finish one premiere shake. Going shopping today to find the chewable calcium and a hemroid ring to help lessen the pressure on my poor tail bone (so sore!) still little gas being drawn out but I'm like the little engine that could. I'll start tooting eventually!
Have a fantastic day!

We found the chew able calcium (Jaimeson brand) at Shoppers and Walmart
Just an FYI....we asked the surgeon about the one painful incision (upper right) after hubby's surgery. It is because they had to cut through more muscle at that particular site so there is an internal stitch as well! That was hubby's only complaint after surgery was that one incision!
