Question:
Hello everyone,
Well im back home now, its been 2 days since my sx and im doing well.
When i went into the surgery center they took my blood preaseue etc and said mine was very low, but good, i wasnt even ed at that point just very excited but very calm.
My ps was so nice, after my sx i woke up in the recovery room and there was a lovely bunch of flowers from him!
The - I cant really feel anything, their just hard from being swollen, they just knid of feel like when your milk comes in after you have a baby. I thought i wouldnt be albe to lift up my arms but i can easily.
My tummy is of course very sore but i have a pain pump which i am very pleased i have and also back up tablets for the pain, im still very hunched over and will probablly still be for some days or weeks to come.
(flanks) is very bruized and hurts to touch it even very gently, looks very bad.
I took my off just to reposition it yesterday and it felt very weird not having it on for those few seconds.
I am so glad i have lots of help here at my home, i need help just getting in and out of the couch and bed and the toilet seat isnt feeling so low now! The first few times i sat on the toilet i felt i was never going to make it down that far.
Sleeping had been a bit hard as i have a lot of bruzing on my flanks and my bum has been getting numb.
I am so glad i did this and now i just hope i have a speedy recovery.
Thank you everyone who helped me with questions i had, now im in the flatlands i will be albe to help others now.

Answer:
It sounds like you are doing awesome! The first few days are tough, but it will get better. Showering was really hard for me the first week or so, but it got so much easier on about day 6 or 7. Thank goodness because I was getting tired of my stinky self.
