4 Days Post Op - Plastics

Dec 27, 2008

I must say that things are much better than I anticipated at this point.  I feel great and I feel like doing more than I am supposed to.  I am taking it easy, but it is hard to refrain from lifting objects around the house.  I am so used to cleaning (that is the neat freak in me) - vacuming, windows, dishes, making beds, etc. - it is hard to resist the urge to have a clean house.  My wife has taken over those things for now, but she isn't quite as anal about those things like I am. 

I am off of my pain medicine now.  I don't really have any pain at the incision sites that I can tell.  They did create a new belly button and my whole stomach area feels relatively numb.  I'm not sure if that is related to numbing medication the surgeon may have used or if it is related to nerve endings that were cut.  I guess time will tell.  I have my first follow up visit with the plastic surgeon on Tuesday of next week so he will give me the definitive answer about everything then.

Until then, take care and be good.
