I was able to complete a 5k walk today. Yay! I wasnt sure I could make it but with everyones encouragement I did it. Someone said I should train for the 1/2 marathon walk in May ??? Got me thinking. :-)
I have been ok other than this horrible itching around the areas where the steri strips used to be at about day 8. OMG! It was horrible. I thought I would rip my skin off. I tried everything and finally got some Hydrocortisone cream and 3 days of Prednisone to calm it down. It is much better now.
I definately feel more restriction in the morning. And in the evening I am hungrier. I am trying to stay on the prescribed plan and to eat very slowly. It is hard,. I think the swelling is starting to go down post op inside and I feel less restricted. I cant wait for a fill but that is in two more weeks. :-)
Tomorrow I am supposed to be able to start things like tuna with mayo etc.
:-) Its a good day!:thumbup:
