update on pain, etc.

I went to my surgeon this am and he said I have an infection at my old port site and put me on AB.  He also felt like some of my discomfort was from lack of bowel movement so I took some milk of magnesia....that definietely helped.  I am still in pain but hopeful it will improve in the coming days now that i have AB.  One bonus on this unscheduled MD appt today, he went ahead and took my staples out, so that alone made me feel better.  I am glad to have that over with.  Now I just have my lil steri-strips.

On a side note, I have been whinny and crying on and off all day.  I thought this stage didnt set in till much later?  Or does the mini-depression come this early before weight loss even starts?

Good grief this has been a journey thus far!
