One week today!

Aug 10, 2009

Well, today was my one week mark..and sadly I feel like total poo!!  I'm having alot of issues...some normal..some not so normal.   Tomorrow I go for my one week follow-up.  AND I have to have an ultrasound on my legs cuz I'm having sever dabilitating pain in both my left and right leg and my right foot.   It is excruciating!!    I cant sleep, can hardly walk... I'm just miserable. 
   It started mildly in my right calf the day of surgery when i started walking...got progressivly worse each day.   I dont think its a clot, more likely nutrient deffiency, ( I stopped taking my suppliments a week before surgery and I take a high doesage of betapace for my A-Fib which depleats potasium) but omg the pain is unbareable.  
     I really dont do well with pain meds, so I'm only using tylenol and thermacare heat wraps.  This eases it a tiny bit, but not nearly enough to sleep and function.  
    I'm Gonna try the new stuff ive been reading about...Neuragen PN.  I had to order it from target.  Cant find it anywhere in town, and the fastest way to get it was target pharmacy ordering it...will be here tomorrow.    
     Other than that..I guess I have the same issues every one seems to the first week.....neseua, sensativity to smell, terrible, almost constant heart burn, the bathroom drama...and trying to get enough fluids while feeling so full.  Everything tastes horrible to me right now.   I'm sure this will all pass.....  and I know it will all be worth it in the end...its just getting to that point withouth losing my mind....lol.
