I had no idea it would be so hard for me to get back into the flow of work. I seem to be having a harder time with it now than I did from returning from my hyst and then the GB surgeries. My abdoman is so sore and it wasn't even operated on. I guess it is from the ongoing abdominal problem I have had since my hyst almost 11 months ago.I am still having the bm issues after having my posterior repair surgery. I am not allowed to strain, so I decided to go back to the colon rectal dr. I will have a lab done on April 13th.(EMG, anal manometry test and who know what else?)I think these tests measure spincher tones and muscle and nerves.Hopefully they will figure out the problem and come up with a treatment plan for me. I still have abdominal thumping and gurgly noises so it could be a number of different things.The nurse practioner ordered me some Mirlax, so hopefully that will help.I am still searching for those answers.
I have a different co worker now and I have to say he is great!! He won't let me lift anything and he really looks out for me.I should have known I would be pampered by him, because that is just the way he has always been.I am so glad he moved to my unit to work.It sure makes work a little more toleratable.
I have to work Fri-Sun, then be off Mon. I am employeed by the state, so Easter is not considered a holiday, although I think it is one of the most important ones.Being a medical facility I expect to work weekends and holidays anyway.
I am taking one day at a time and enjoy the blessings each day gives me. I know I will find answers and a solution to the medical issues before too long. I am just so grateful to be here and be able to celebrate my upcoming hyster anniversary.(May 7th)
