Yesterday was not a good day.  I cried most of the day.  As of yesterday, I had been only sleeping about 3-4 hours at a time.  I was very depressed.  I finally got some sleep last night (almost 10 hrs) and I finally pooped with the help of milk of magnesia.  Today is so much better.  Not really a whole lot of pain left.  Just pressure when I sit and lay down.  My incisions look great and I feel so much better.

Today is the 24th of April and I am 2 days post-op.  Still haven't slept thru the night and have lots of gas that just won't come out, making it uncomfortable to sit, sleep or move.  The Lortab for pain has given me a "sunburn" type feel to my skin (heat radiating) so I have stopped taking that.  Tylenol seems to be able to handle what little pain I do have.  Did I say how tired I am?

They are terrible.  I can not choke down one more oatmeal.  I am left with chocolate drink mix and chili.  Not too bad though.  I am also very hungry.... Boy, I thought I could do anything for two weeks.  This is pretty hard.
