3 months post op |
07-27-2005 - 01:04 PM |
Well here I am 3 months post op and doing pretty good. still have a few minor issues. soreness in the belly area, some breast tenderness, and some mood swings. but none of these are too serious or worrisome. the only thing that has me a little puzzled is that in the morning when I wake up and pee for the first time of the day I have a lot of pressure in the pelvic area. not a real bad pain or burning like you would get with a infection or anything. and the energy thing is still an issue. it is funny one dat I will have all the energy in the world and the next day I will be dead tired. oh well I guess it is true when they say it takes 6 months to a year to get back to normal what ever that is HA HA.well this is my update.

First Day back at work |
06-16-2005 - 11:08 AM |
Well I went back to work last night for the first time since my surgery 7 1/2 wks ago. and as I had written before I was worried about it with the lifting issues and such. well I did not have to do any lifting just cleaning tables and such. felt pretty good until about the last half hour and then I started to feel a little pain but not to bad until I got home. and then bam I could not believe how I felt I was so glad that I had smart and saved a few pain pills just in case I needed them when I went back to work well I needed them last night. I even had to take a couple this morning . I feel sore all over and I have this nagging pain on my right side by my incision. I don't know what it is it is not like the pulling tearing thing I wrote about earlier.who knew that 3hrs work would efect you like this. think I will go take a nap now. I am sure it will get better as I get back into the routine.I can say that this recovery has been different from my other surgeries.well the bed is calling my name. Take Care to any ladies that may comment on this entry. I am so glad to have found you all Thanks, Cathy

week 7 feeling better |
06-13-2005 - 10:18 AM |
Hello, well I am 7wks post op today and I feel pretty good. just a little soreness with the swelly belly and I still get those zingers. asked the doc about it last week and he said it was the nerves heeling. I don't remember those pains from my other surgerys though. and I go back to work on Wed. not really looking forward to that . I thought it was strange that the doc did not give me any lifting restictions. he said it would be ok to lift 40-50 pound boxes. I hope he is right. I am not so sure though. well journal that is all I have today.

week 5 |
06-01-2005 - 09:06 AM |
Hello Journal, well I am 5wks post op and I do feel better than I did in my last entry. still a lttle sore and swollen but not to bad. the only real thing right now is I feel a bit tired then I had in the past few wks and now I am havind a strange pulling and tearin sensation on the right side of my incision but it just comes and goes does not last too long. and I have learned that it is normal part of healing something to do with the nerves finally starting to wake up after surgery.but I will make sure to ask the doc about it next week at my 6wk check up just to make sure. but I do feel much better. it is just funny how new things seem to pop up that you don't even think about until it happens. but all in all I think I have had a pretty good recovery. thank god. well I will write more after I see the doc next week.

3wks post op |
05-19-2005 - 01:48 PM |
well here I am a little over 3wks post TAH/LSO. and I am doing pretty good still have a little bit of a pain issue. but my doc says it is to be expected since this is my 3rd abdominal surgery and he used the same incision line as the other 2 so it will take me a little longer to heal.maybe I will feel better at 4wks we will see.
