How do I stop being scared
HI
I hope you feel better soon, I also worried myself stupid in the first few weeks, but everything went ok. The things that helped were very gentle walking and getting off medication with codeine in it, I think it started to make me feel a bit edgy, sort of. Then again it is helpful for pain. Take it easy, maybe watch a daggy Tv show??

Not to worry!! You'll be feeling like a new woman in just a short time. Take your temp....but, don't worry. Be logical and write down the temps and compare. If you start to feel ill. Call your doctor. Positive thoughts!! :-) Sit back, watch tv until you think that you can't watch another minute....call a friend or loved one and think....It's only going to get better. Believe me, I covered the worry for many women unecessarily. Happy Holidays!! take care of you!!

Padamle,
From your post - are you no longer in Columbus?
Oh, and regarding your fear of fever - do you still have ovaries? Because if you're without and experiencing hot flashes - you might think you're running a temp but are just having one of those power surges!!!

How do I stop being scared
I hate to say the grass is always greener on the other side. My husband works midnights, only took 5 days off, and we have 2 kids at home 9 and 4, one has some special needs. I am never alone! Today I did 2 loads of dishes, made dinner, let the dogs in and out fed them, did a load of laundry, wrote 20 christmas cards/gifts for work, Fed the fish in the basement. This was slow compared to other days, afew days ago, I paid the bills, wrote 30 christmas cards, online christmas shopped, picked up my daughter from pre school (I know not supposed to be driving)! My house is a mess,but would be worse if I had not have cleaned some. Then my husband has the nerve to wonder why I'm p.o.'d. that I have to wrap my son's teachers presents tonight.I also have to drive myself 40min. tomarow to get some of my stitches out. Sorry, but venting! I will switch with you for a couple of days.... Take care, Patty
