Congratulations on being on the losing side. Try to hang in there and stay focused and take one day at a time. Everyone is different, and some heal fast and some slow. I had open also and it took me about 2 months to start to feel better. Make sure you get those proteins in even if you have to sip spoonfuls of it. everyone has to go through this stage to get to the painless part. Hang in there hon. Remember your AMOS friends are always here for support. 24-7~*~Hugs~*~
