My Single Mom Life: I'm alright, just fighting pain away again.

« A bit of a setback. | Main | Doing ok this morning. »

I'm alright, just fighting pain away again.

I had a rough weekend because I ran out of pain meds and was trying to take Tylenol but found myself taking 8 or more at a time.
That is bad.
My stomach was a wreck, my body wouldn't stop spasming, I couldn't sleep at all.
I was getting 20 minutes at a time of sleep and then getting sick to my stomach.
I called my surgeon and his surgical nurse Cindy yelled at me about running out of meds.
"It's too soon to try taking Tylenol" she said. "You had major surgery and it will be months before you can just take otc pain control. Don't do this again."
I apologized like crazy, she called in a script for lortabs and mailed me a script for percocets.
You can't call those in in this state.
It will be fun trying to get that filled then because I don't think they will let Mark pick them up.
They have been letting him pick up all my other scripts.
I'll have to call them and ask when it gets here.

The other set back is one of my scabs on my back fell off during one of my toss and turn nights but it wasn't exactly ready yet. Now, it is all green pussy and the skin around it is red and swollen.
Great.
I had Mark clean it out with the sterile solution they sent home with me, put a little bit of neosporin on it and re-bandage it.
I'm gonna do everything I can to heal it without antibiotics.
I can't take them. They make me so sick it's awful.
I puke, I get the diars, I smell food and turn green, I see commercials for food and puke. Yeah, me and antibiotics do not go well together.

So, anyway, I am ok, just checking in so no one worries. (sorry mom and dad)
Later days.
