Have you talked to your surgeon about the redness at the port site?

I have 5 wounds also. My Dr. normally does 4, but I had to have one extra. I have a scar on my abdomen from getting my spleen removed when I was 4. There was too much scar tissue for him to go through, so he had to choose another site. Cannot wait to get the steri-strips off on Friday, they are beginning to irriate me.

Retta--I know what you mean about snacking. I have had to hold myself back from grabbing one of my children's goldfish crackers a few times!! Fatduck, I am feeling better, still sore in places, just real fatigued!! I really think I underestimated my recovery time!

Hey, I am feeling really good except for being realy tired. Probably a combination of healing and not having many calories to get me through my day. I could actually start mushy foods this weekend. I only had to be on liquids four days. It is better, but still sucks!! Try not to beat yourself up about the bread, my dr says that it is a no-no, but he know we all will try it at one point or another!!

I totally underestimated my recovery too! Today is this first day I have not napped! I was very suprised at how sore I was and how sore I still am in places! Last night, I started to get an appetite and started mushy foods today. I am going through little bouts of "what the hell did I just do to my life?" mixed in with hope and excitement for the future!!
