Don't Feel Good....

Yesterday I had no choice but to take a car ride. I had a driver take my son and I to an important appointment.

I thought no problem I will go along.

Well today I feel like I have taken 2 steps backwards!

I was feeling well walking every other hour for 15 min.

NOT TODAY!

All the bumps and the seat belt and riding around made me feel like I was hit by a truck!

Even my lungs aren't inhaling as well as they were.

I am so sad that I went backwards...

  • The dr. Office didn't seem concerned they said I am still healing so any little car ride will feel like a set back. I told them the numbers on the little lung strengthener they gave me and my numbers

  • Sneezing not allowed! That hurts like hell I'm sure! I got a case of the hiccups this morning and it brought tears to my eyes! After the 7th or 8th one they finally went away. My Dr.'s office gave me

I hope you feel better soon. Try using pillows when riding in a car until your tummy heal.

The dr. Office didn't seem concerned they said I am still healing so any little car ride will feel like a set back. I told them the numbers on the little lung strengthener they gave me and my numbers only went down a little bit from yesterday. She said it is not drastic enough to be concerned. She said take it easy and don't worry I didn't damage anything.

Your right.... better safe than sorry!

My surgery was Tuesday, oct 23. I had two days of nausea and still dealing with mild to moderate pain, but actually feeling good overall! Today I've been sneezing a lot, which is very painful! I'm using this abdominal binder I got at the hospital, and that is helping, too.

That hurts like hell I'm sure! I got a case of the hiccups this morning and it brought tears to my eyes! After the 7th or 8th one they finally went away. My Dr.'s office gave me a bear... I was squeezing him like crazy and my son named him boo since he helped with the hiccups! LoL kids.
