Okay I have been home since Thursday...home being my sister's as I can't stay on my own yet.  I have been in quite a bit of pain and battling a fever.  I am just about done with the pain to be honest.  Although I have a high pain tolerance I hate feeling trapped and confined to my bed (or couch in this case) and unable to really move.  Don't get me wrong I walk as much as possible and my muscles are getting quite the work out with all of the coughing I am doing.  I have not eaten much, as I don't when I am not feeling well and I also find it hard on my stomach.  My first bowel movement was on Saturday, which was quite painful.  When does the pain stop?

I'm glad you are out of the hospital. That always helps. Each day gets better little by little. I didn't feel good or my new "normal" til about 9 weeks. Be patient with yourself. You will be tired for awhile. Drinking/eating is a trial & error kind of thing. Just keep trying different things. Try to drink as much as you can so you don't get dehydrated. It is hard to drink at first. I'm glad you are at your sister's. Get all the help you can.
Hugs and hang in there.
