Day 6 of Recovery

I woke up this morning feeling pretty good. My mouth was really dry though. It reminded me of when I woke up after the surgery when I wasnt allowed to drink. The nurse had given me moistened sponge swabs to wet the inside of my mouth.

 

That first sip of water the next day was so good. :redface:

 

I had my first follow up visit with my family doctor today. She's very happy with the way I'm healing. A few of my steri strips have a few blod drops under them, but that's normal. She gave me reminders about fluids and recommended a skin cream.

 

I've been pretty nauseated today. I think I'm feeling a bit hungry too. Its kinda hard to tell. I had some veggie broth and protien shake. Then my hubby started dinner and my stomach started aching again.

 

I ended up lying down most of the afternoon.
