1 Wk Post-Op In 1 Hour, What Are Some Important Questions To Ask?

[OldMomOf3 52]

I have my 1 week post-op apt today and I'm wondering if anyone has thoughts about the questions I should be sure to ask or the issues we should be sure to cover.

Personally, my 3 concerns are:

-what can I eat next? hahahahaha

-what's with these stitches sticking out of my incisions (were supposed to be all inside, so what to do about them - they are pokey)

-PORT PAIN!

But what else do we need to cover??????

Thanks for the reply!

I had my appointment and it went well.

Doc cut the stitches so they don't bother me now.

Port pain is still there but getting better SLOWLY.

I am now allowed to eat a few more things: Really really mashed potato, Greek yogurt and my vitamins/medications.
