October 18, 201213 yr Author Last nights dream- I was half awake b/c of a burning pain near port and I'm thinking I must be in wrong (LBT) thread. I got to find the right thread? Who knows maybe I wasn't even in pain!? How do I control my dreams so I might dream about George Clooney or Matthew McConnahey(sp?)
October 18, 201213 yr Remember to take short walks indoors if you can't walk outdoors around your house. It helps with any trapped gas in your body cavity. SIP lots of Water,ice chips and you can have a SF popsicle. Keep your meds as directed. You will each day do better and after a week not remember all the discomfort and worries that you have taken so far. Best wishes and Keep the Faith.

I have to walk outside,inside is not big enough to really get going.lol Going to try exercise bike today!
October 19, 201213 yr I wouldn't try the exercise bike unless you contact your doctor. Might pull on the lower adomen where they installed the port. Please call your doctors office first. Just light walks outside and often would be good. Or around the block if you feel up to it. Maybe a family member can walk with you. My gas was overnight only because of all the walking I did do and the heating pad that I used during the day. Best wishes
