Post-op

Had my surgery on 9/22. Feeling a little better now. Still get this hard sensation when I lie flat or when burping. Kind of can get crazy when I think I'm going to have to have this thing in me forever. Start thinking I'm different compared to the rest of the world. Having a lot of problems with constipation even though I'm taking medicine for it. People keep telling me they can't believe they did surgery on me because I'm not that over-weight ( 5foot and 220 pounds to start). And as usual, once I've lost a couple of pounds then I think I'm not that big. But then again, I keep putting that weight back on. I'm sure all this is just a process. Wish me luck. Going to work today for the first time. Just not really sure how to respond to people when they do find out.

just be completely open about it. you should have no shame!

things will get better, just give it some time.
