I'm Home!!

[SherriWittler 1]

I got home today ..... pretty sore. I slept pretty much the 2 hour drive home. I did put a pillow between my stomach and the seat belt. Far worse today than I was yesterday!! Taking my pain meds faithfully!! I cannot drive my car until the 26th. I feel like I have been ran over by a big steam roller - my tummy area is VERY SORE!!! I know as the days go by, I will start to feeling better. I have been very lazy and just laying around all day ............ and I don't feel guilty for doing that. I am having TERRIBALE pain in the middle area of my back ... don't know what's that's caused from. I have to go back to Topeka on the 25th for my post-op visit.

I would appreciate your continued prayers.

xo,

Sherri

Oh Sherri!- I do hope you feel better soon and will keep you in my prayers. I'm a pre bandster and always look to new bandsters as a wealth of information. How do drinking liquids make you feel? Any nausea? Gas pain?

I had a lot of pain as well.....was really wondering "am I a wimp or what?" So many people talk about how little pain they have.....I have had 3 c-Sections so pain is not new to me....this pain was just different and I went back to work as a nurse doing 12 hour shifts just a couple of days later so probably put my healing way behind...just take it easy and baby yourself! You'll do a lot better in the long run, believe me! And congrats on the band....I am thrilled with mine! Got it 2/27/06, soreness gone, got filled to a good level and I'm good to go! You'll be there before you know it!
