    Incision Pain

    I was the 21st and my largest indication was very sore and larger than the others and raised. I saw my dr. Last Monday and said it look ok. If it is really bad I would ask to come in before Thursday. Do u think that it's infected ?
  5. Thanks so much. I have been making myself crazy trying to get all this water in ...which I haven't succeeded at. I can now add to my mfp log.
  6. I am out 9 days and am struggling with the liquids. This may be a dumb question but does the protein shake count toward liquids? I too find that endurance is an issue. But having 600 calories a day can be hard on your body. Good luck everyone... One day at a time.

    I'm doing too much and nobody cares!

    Show them your scars. The picture will not go out of their heads. Might earn a few minutes rest. You are the rock and they cannot image you needing a break. It stinks. Your not alone. Vent anytime you want!
