Re: Might have over done it :(
Take it easy and let yourself heal. I know I've overdone it the past two weeks and now I am feeling it. After this weekend of planned celebrations (sigh), I am planning to get my feet up and ice pack my swollen parts. I am really, literally feeling the strain. The surgeon said I shouldn't worry about damaging anything internal--apparently he feels confident that the stitches will hold, but I am feeling some major pulling that I haven't felt before and some stinging pain down my leg. Hoping this is all part of the healing process.
I know this all gets better as we heal. It is just the waiting and reminding to take it easy, even when we want to do more, that is difficult.
