Third Day with the Band

Apr 10, 2010

Today I woke up and the soreness is soooo TOLERABLE!  Yay!  I am thrilled because I am going to try to visit my family and niece at my mom's house.  I can't drive yet and need to bring the oxygen with me but I'm just happy to get out of the house and to be able to get up and down without wanting to cry or feeling scared of moving my legs! 

After investigation, It seems my whole body soreness is due to me panicking in the hospital after having my first asthma attack.  I apparently tightened every muscle even in my sleep!  My mom said she kept making me relax my hand but I would just tense back up while I was asleep.  So, this muscle soreness  (which is worse than the little pain of my tummy) is totally abnormal (like me! lol) but should get better pretty fast now.  The more I move and then when I sleep it seems to heal more.  So I think trying to visit my niece at my mom's is awesome.  

I was pretty physically miserable, but I'm finally feeling so much better.  Now I can start to feel more excited about the days in front of me.  

I was noticing though, that everytime I eat my shake I feel like lots of air has to escape. I burp a lot, but it's not like a normal gassy burp, it's just air escaping.  I wonder if that is normal.
