5 Days Out - Panni & TT
I think I'm doing pretty well. I still have times off and on during the day when I feel totally yucky, but then have a few times when I feel almost human again. I am going back to the Dr Thursday and hope to have my drains out then. I know I'll feel better after that!
My biggest issue has been getting comfortable to sleep. I'm not a back sleeper at all and have not been able to get comfortable in the bed on my back so have spent most nights in the recliner which is still not ideal.
My pain is minimal at this point. Last night I took extra strength tylenol at bedtime instead of the normal pain med and I didnt sleep as well. Tonight it will probably be back to the pain med, but only at bedtime. It's been tylenol as needed during the day.
All in all I have done well, just not used to sitting around like this and feeling so yucky. I know each day will get better. I do like the results even with the swelling and will post picks in a few days.
