Owie

I'll post more details later when I'm not so loopy from meds.

I'm home and recovery is going better than I expected. The time between magic sleepy pain relieving pills is getting longer and getting up and about is getting easier. I might even try real clothes tomorrow - with out cartoon monkeys or sassy little ms. something or other faces.
The only complaint I have is the lack of #2. Yes, that #2. Lots of effort is getting a minimal return. I'll never take that particular movement for granted again!

Meg, so happy to hear you are doing well. The lack of #2 is so totally common. I took Colace, which eventually helped. Eat prunes too. Don't worry, it will all work out. You've definitely gotten through the worst of it...now just focus on taking it easy and healing. So happy the surgery is over!!! :)

Thanks for the visit!

Glad to read your surgery went well and you are recovering. Hope things have started to "work out" if you know what I mean! Post-surgical constipation is never a fun thing. Initially after surgery I found that even though walking wasn't great - rocking in a rocking chair was okay and helped to move things along a little better.

Hope this is the start of good things to come!

Thinking of you and hoping you are feeling better and better!
