Hi all! I am in ICU recovering. Worst part is the gas pain and pressure!

Hi all! I am in ICU recovering. Worst part is the gas pain and pressure!

Glad you are out of surgery. Why are you in ICU? Did you have complications or is it routine at the hospital you're in? Hang in there with the gas and pressure. It's awful, but it will get better!

Woo hoo.... On my way home. Now's when it gets interesting!

Thanks Jessica! How is your incision doing? Thankfully' date=' my infection doesn't appear to be that bad. The hole is already closing up and has pretty much stopped draining. Paying close attention to our bodies is crucial. I inspect my incisions daily - at least the areas I could see around the steristrips - and knew immediately something wasn't right. Light pink + increased pain at site = infection. As soon as I pulled the corner of the steristrip back, it started to drain. Within an hour, I had spoken with the on call doctor and had my antibiotics in hand. Thank goodness my body made a hole and I didn't have to go through what you did![/quote']

That's so good your doing better from your infection I'm doing alot better from my incision itis finally closing too!

Thank you..I just had a woman call me on base and offer to clean My house 2 times a week for free for the next month and she will do the clean out of the old house and a pre clean of the new house before a move in..thank God for military wives..my husband is so busy as grid getting ready to leave again. My son plays sports n works. I'm sure my OCD doesn't help as I have to have a very very clean house. Lol

Your welcome WOW thats amazing and wonderful! People have such kind spirits and its great to hear there are still people who help others. Enjoy having help. Do not over work yourself!

September to remember what a great name for our fb page.

Jessica hope you are feeling better you are home from the hospital right?

I am almost 12 hours until my surgery time, I have to be at the hospital at 530 am. My SI joint is still painful but a bit better. I excoriated my skin on my backside with the ice pack I made and now have a dressing on it, hope it heals up some for tomorrow.

I have reduced another 8 lbs. went to the pcps office today to weigh in thats 28 Lbs eliminated pre op. I took my collection of Davinci syrups out of storage but could not find my smaller sized clothes. I did find my smaller scrubs including a brand new pair that's butter soft and I never got to wear them. They almost fit when I bought them but then I Gained wt.

Send your positive energy my way tomorrow. I will be bringing my iPad but not sure when or if I Will be able to get on

First day back to work today. It was too soon... The ripping pain in my left side is still there, thank goodness for the belly wrap that my husband bought me at Walmart. I was in the ER this past Friday for the pains that won't go away in my side. They did a CT and sent me away saying "we dont know why you are in such pain" apparently no infection or obvious issues. It is so frustrating not knowing why i hurt so bad..
