3wks in 2 my post op
well im just about 3wks in 2 my post op and im still feeling very sore, and funny feelings down below, all my family and friends have been fantastic, and not for getting my husband, all i want is to be free of pain as i have been in pain and been in bed and off work since the 18th Feb 08. I had one of my friends up too see me and instead of asking how iam she told me to get out my <Oops! Please don't override the site censor> bed i thought charming and thanx for coming ti chear me up, she soon left and said well i hope the next time i come to see you, you will be up, but not in a concerning way, i felt quite sad when she left and all alone as my hubby was going away to wrk and all i wanted was a good cuddle. Roll on the day when iam better.

I can't believe she said that to you! Does she not realize you had MAJOR surgery?! That was very uncalled for from her! Make sure you put her in her place the next time you talk to her!

I had mine Jan. 4, 2008 and i can remembering If one more person said I know how you feel or Such and such had it and it was like this for her.. I thought I'm never going to be able to say that... buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuttttttttttttt getting better does make you think HEY it was like such and such..
So a friend was getting ready to have hers and she asked what to exspect and I said .... everyone is different. You will heal your own way. Sign on to Hyster sister and read about it.. I don't ever want her to get mad at me for what i went through. So let your friend know that she was out of place and you hope she never has to go through what you did. There are so many out there that are going through what we did and don't need friends that cant' just be there for us. Take care.... Dianna

Hi girls, I appreciate your sharing. I am 5 days post op and my family is already wishing for me to be getting back to life. they are understanding though, my husband is helping as much as he can, and so are my girls 12, and 10. I guess I am also missing my life activities. I am still having minor pain i had only one vicoden today and also tylenol es. I am worried about becoming dependant on the pain meds.
Thanks for listening.
Sincerely,
Lori,37 yrs

Lori Ann,
That would be the day We gave birth to our secound daughter.
I only wish you the best. Remember on the days that your feeling bad it's ok to do what it takes to stop the pain. I would keep track of the great info. that is on line.
Most of the time they are spot on as far as feelings, pain, and any other thing that you go... I must be the only person on the planet that feels that way.
Your not alone but you do have to go through it in what ever works best for you.. Remember that.
We all are here for you. Don't do to much to fast either.. No one wants you to go backwards.. believe me i started marking on the calender.... good day.. bad day.. ok day.. argh... it helped pass the time and made others aware of what i was going through..
Dianna

I'm so sorry your "friend" said that to you! She doesn't sound like much of a friend to act not only so insensitive, but just ill-mannered in general. If you don't want her to come again, tell her so! Or if you want, just tell her you're not up for any company. Also, remember that we all heal in our own ways and don't feel the need to move too fast b/c of stupid comments like that. Take care of yourself first and foremost! Good luck!!

Lori Ann,
Take the pain meds if they make you feel better and you have pain. My doctor kept telling me to take them and I said I was afraid to become addicted. He said for the few days or weeks you take them you do not become addicted if that is not your nature. He told me to take them so I am comfortable and then I will heal faster. I am three and half weeks and there are still days that I take them. There are days when I just take advil or nothing at all. I do not think I have become dependent on them since I can stop when I don't have pain. Take them to help you get better.

Thanks Bridget. I am feeling better the last couple of days using advil and tyenol as needed. I appreciate the support. I have my check up with the Dr tomorrow. I realize I will have good days and bad days. This web site has been so very helpful.
