Iam kinda freaking out because they didn't really encourage me to walk or use that breathing device.Then they kept forgetting to put my compression stockings back on. Now Iam finding out that they should kept them on me the whole time I was in the hospital. I had to be my own advocate, although there were like 2 nurses that were good.

I was outpatient - they put the compression stockings on me for surgery....once I was walking around (about 2 hours post op, they took them off. I had no "breathing thing." Walking around is the best thing you can do.

I wore them and the pulsating things, too. I also had to wear them while traveling this summer.
