6 Days Out From Surgery
I had surgery on Weds. 9/28 and came home on Friday night. About an hour after returning home I started with a pain in my groin and left side. By Saturday morning the pain was excruciating! My surgeon said to go to the ER and they determined that I had a raging UTI. I got home from the ER at midnight and my pharmacy had closed already so I started my antibiotic on Sunday. Starting to feel a little better now and get some strength back. I am getting all of my water in and getting 60 g of protein in with my shakes. I'm walking as much as possible as I still have quite a bit of pain on my side.
