Wow, thanks for all the comments on my question yesterday.
I went from feeling great to feeling like crude. My face, shoulders and chest where bright red, I had no fever and my blood presure was fine. I finally called the doc and he said it is probably an allergic reaction.
I had the hubby get some benadryl and it knocked me out. Feeling a lot better today still a little red but much better.
I think I prepared myself for everything, but the immediate after surgery time. Not sure how you all do it by going back to work so fast. Glad I took more time off.
Ok more later.

(Man I hate it when you think you hit post but it deletes instead, let's try this again)
Now on Day 5 of my post-op. Next doc appointment is set for this Thursday and back to work on Friday.
I woke up today to a great morning. I had lots of energy and was able to drink lots of water. Got my girl off to school and decided to run and see the hubby at work for a few minutes. He even commented about how I had my color back. Yah! So I decided to drive to the store and walk a little. That didn't last long because I got really tired. My hubby tells me I forget I am on an all liquid diet (and I mean ALL liquid) I have been on the all liquid diet since 4/28 and boy it's getting old. It isn't that I feel hungry I think I am past that stage it's just that I don't have enough energy since the surgery. Since the surgery I haven't been able to drink the protein drinks, I am hoping that after my appointment on Thursday I will get the ok to drink protein again.
I did something I didn't think I would need to quite this soon. I bagged up clothes that I can not fit anymore. I am not quite ready to go on a shopping spree but I think I am going to have to shop for a few things sooner than I thought.
Well that would be all the good going on in my life and the only bad I can think of is still being sore and of course the lack of energy after a while.
One last good thing. When the hubby got home I asked him if he would get on the Harley so I can climb up. I'm so freaking excited because i can actually put my hand between my leg and the saddle bags. I haven't felt great on his bike in 10+ years. My goal this summer is a weekend trip on the bike with the hubby. He even said it was alot easier with me getting on and off the bike. GOOD DAY!!! GOOD DAY!!!
Have a great one.
